Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Louis Umfreville Wilkinson
Georgian House, Bury Street, St. James', S.W.
27 June 1929
Dear H.G.
How would you know that I should have read Mr. Amberthwaite [A novel by Louis Marlow/Wilkinson] and Two made their bed when no kind friend sends me copies? I haven’t had money to spare to buy a book since about 1900!
But times change. I am going for John Bull for criminal libel.
And I think I’ve got publishers—live ones. Would you undertake to edit my Autohagiography [The Confessions of Aleister Crowley]? Let me know by return, and I’ll mention your name. It might be a good thing, and I’d rather have you than another.
Now I go back into the 1st line trenches.
Yours,
Aleister Crowley President of the League of Virtue.
Louis Wilkinson Esq. c/o Llewelyn Powys Esq. The White Nose Owernyne Dorchester
