Title
Copy of a letter from Ross to John Murray, Publisher
Date
30/1/1922
Description
Encloses the first 21 chapters of his autobiography as he says he cannot complete it without Murray's advice. He is not unduly concerned if it is not published but would then present the manuscript to a museum or library. Gives an outline of the three parts and that he has reached his being awarded the Nobel Prize. He would like to know whether to compress the rest or not and whether he could add bibliographies, appendices and illustrations as the amount of manuscript he encloses is about 150,000 words
