Two letters to Madol concering the latter's book on the Spanish dictator Godoy translated into English as GODOY: THE FIRST OF THE MODERN DICTATORS L. 1934.<br/><br/>In the first letter Maurois acknowledges receipt of the book by the historian and biographer Madol: " I have just read the beginning and the book seems fine to me. I promise to let you know . "<br/><br/>In the second letter Maurois responds to an invitation to write the Preface to GODOY: "I"d be delighted to see your book on Godoy appear in France but I don't feel capable of writing a preface on the subject. It's about a man I know little about except through you and about a period which I have never studied. My Preface would have little authority. I think every man should stay faithful to what he knows. But if you wish I could very well recommend your book to my publisher . "<br/><br/>André Maurois 1885-1967 novelist and biographer was son of an Alsatian draper who worked in the family business until he became a staff liaison officer with the British forces during World War I. His novel Les Silences du colonel Bramble 1918 gained him an immediate celebrity; Maurois wrote prolifically: novels on philosphical and moral themes and well-regarded biographies; he was elected to the Académie Française in 1938. unknown books

Typed Letter signed to editor Ernest Boyd of the American Spectator regarding the possible publication of an excerpt from his unpublished work EDOUARD VII
Neuilly-sur-Seine France 1933. One page. 1 vols. 4to. Slight wear at edges and folds. One page. 1 vols. 4to. To the American Spectator. Interesting letter from the French Jewish novelist biographer essayist and historian to the American co-editor along with George Jean Nathan of Nathan's newly formed magazine "The American Spectator."<br/><br/>"My dear Boyd<br/><br/>"I had promised to give some unpublished excepts from my Edward VII. It isn't easy to detach sections from a historical work. However you could take either the first chapter "Final Days and Death of Queen Victoria" which Appleton already has in translation and could give you - or the third chapter "Men and Parties" which contains several potraits of Englihs politicians . a few of them might be amusing ."<br/><br/><br/>Born as Emile Herzog Maurois changed his name assimilated and published his first novel in 1918. During WWII he supported the Vichy regime but was a strong opponent of Hitler and eventually had to flee to the United States where he taught at Princeton. He is perhaps even more widely known in Great Britain and the U.S. for his masterful biographies of Shelley and Byron and his books on the Edward and the Edawardian Period as discussed here and English history. unknown books
