Dear Edmund,

In my opinion, THE SCROLLS FROM THE DEAD SEA is one of the finest pieces of work you have ever done. The subject matter lies at the very root of Western civilization, is delicate in the extreme, and you have handled it with superb tact and skill. I read the book twice as soon as it was published and was just thinking of writing you a fan letter about it when your signed copy arrived. Thank you very much.

I hope to see you sometime during the winter.
