TLS signed “A. Einstein,” one page, 8.5 x 11, personal letterhead, July 9, 1947. Einstein offers some advice to Private Stanley Scott. In full: “I would advise you to study Eddington’s books about relativity. One is an exposition of the general ideas and the other gives the mathematical formalism. Beside this you may also read my own little book about the Theory of Relativity which was published by Methuen & Co. London. The same firm also published a little popular book of mine on the same subject. Concerning the Germans I have to remind you that they killed millions of innocent people in the most brutal way.” Intersecting horizontal and vertical folds, a few creases, and small areas of soiling, otherwise fine condition. Remarkable content as Einstein references not only his Theory of Relativity but the Holocaust as well! Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
