If there is anything that is really worthwhile in this mad jumble we call the twentieth century, it should be books.” Laid in is a TLS by Percy Waxman of 'Cosmopolitan' forwarding the book to Connolly, "...Don't blame me for the contents as I am merely acting as a messenger to you from your admirer.
