Scope and Content

Pallis writing from [Long Gores?] Hickling. Just received a letter from Stanley Morison (the great typographist) (She encloses a copy of it) S.M. found her book fascinating though his knowledge of the 'opposing Greek Orthodox and Eastern attitude towards the Latin, Catholic and western attitude' is nil. A puzzle to him why the Western interest in Greek not reciprocated. Praises the work put into the illustrations and printing. Her reply: explains how she worked and the co-operation she got from all those who helped in its production. Has been asked to do a cheap Greek edition, but this impossible.
