Harrap feels no doubt of the considerable success of
the "Polar Picnic" and will therefore be glad to bring out
your other book (about 1917/21) whenever you have it ready.
He says a six-months interval between the books would be
all right, so that your second book could be one of the
Fall publications, 1924.

The Wrangell Island situation is being held over for
the Imperial Conference. I think that success is likely.
That will depend in some part upon the impression you are
making in Canada, both personally and with regard to
Wrangell Island.

It has been a difficult case over here in England. I
judge from one or two sentences in your letters to Taylor
that you have but a slight idea of the real difficulties.

The sketch of you written by Erskine was published here
about a week ago. On my advice Harrap got a large number
of papers containing it which they will use when they begin
advertising your book.

I have spoken to the best lecture manager here about
your coming to England. He says the bookings are all
full for this year but that he could get a good tour for you
in the fall of 1924. There would not be very much money
in it but the increased reputation would be worth while.

You did your work well. I hope you coninue to have
the best of luck.

V. Stefansson.
