Letter to Edward Sims. In part, 'I am honoured that you should ask me to write a foreward to this book but I put it to Cassells that perhaps I was the wrong chap since I figure in the book and it is difficult to write with any conviction when there is a whole chapter in the book saying what a decent chap I am!.'
