Lawyer-turned-writer (1889–1970) best known as the creator of fictional defense attorney Perry Mason. TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, personal letterhead, February 13, 1968. Letter to Dr. Evelyn B. Byrne. In part: “If you start another reading program, I wish you would bear in mind that I have written several travel books on Baja California: Hunting the Desert Whale, Hovering Over Baja, The Hidden Heart of Baja, and Off the Beaten Track in Baja. These books are profusely illustrated with photographs, and the main purpose in writing them is to get our citizens better acquainted with the cultural background of the Mexican people. We don’t know our neighbors well enough. Some day we are going to find that wars are obsolete because we will have learned how to build up international cooperation and international friendship. I am making a lot of financial sacrifices to cut down on my mystery novels in order to write more books dealing with Mexico. And because Baja California is a land of adventure, I have concentrated on it.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
