Scope and content
Thanks Beaton for his congratulatory note. Discusses publication of his book. Lectured on a 50 day Great European Cruise during August and September so that he could go to museums in Paris, Berlin and London. Has been given a new contract on a new book about the last 25 years of Egypt's 18th Dynasty. Is going to do another lecturing stint on a world cruise in January. Antonia Fraser got mixed reviews for her work on Cromwell. Saw Beaton's production of "La Triviata" and thought it was visually dazzling. Truman Capote's new book, "The Dog's Bark" was published recently.
