English novelist, critic, biographer and essayist (1884-1982). ALS, one page, 4.5 x 7, Old Tokefield, Cranleigh, Surrey letterhead, May 26, 1954. A jubilant response and thanks to a friend, Swinnerton writes, in part: “What a find!…Thank you very much for your letter and the copy of the poem ‘Courage,’ which is most interesting. All you tell me, in fact, is…of the greatest interest, & I am much obliged to you. I shall send your letter (and the poem) to Mrs. Pauline Smith, who will be delighted with both. Her little portrait, ‘AB: A Minor Marginal Note,’ is the best thing ever written about Arnold Bennett. I am so glad you like my introductions. Thank you. Now, as to your request: will the enclosed serve the purpose? I happen to have it here; & it is one of the very few things I have which gives his name in full. His letters are all signed’ AB.’ I hope it will do. Thank you for pointing out the misprint in the bibliography.” In fine condition, with a few staple holes towards the top border.
