British novelist (1899–1966) best known for the Horatio Hornblower series and The African Queen, the most famous of his books adapted for the screen. TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10, personal letterhead, September 16, 1958. Forester writes to Thomas K. Boyce at Bellevue Hospital. In full: “I am glad that you have enjoyed reading the Hornblower books and it was very kind of you to write and tell me so. I can’t imagine that this letter would qualify for inclusion in a collection of ‘interesting letters’ but it will have to do as I have made it a rule never to sign photographs….” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. In very fine condition.
