Seriously, Robert and I recommend you to consider it.

You might make a book for drawing-room tables which would be generally acceptable if not too expensive.

And Mr.Spicer is bringing me more?
How kind of you.

And when is he coming?
Scarcely could anyone come as a stranger whom I desire more to see, and I do hope he will bring me facts and fantasies too on the great subject which is interesting me so deeply.

His book of 'Sights and Sounds' we have read, but the new book has not penetrated to us.
'Sights and Sounds' is very curious, and the authenticity of its facts has been confirmed to me by various testimonies, but the author is too clever for his position; I mean too full of flash and wit.
