CHURCHILL, Winston S. (1874-1965). Typed letter signed ("Winston S. Churchill") as Chancellor of the Exchequer to Curtis Brown, Whitehall, 4 December 1927.

One page on his blind-embossed stationery, 91/2 x 71/2 in. (24.2 x 19.1 cm.)

Churchill on international distribution for his fourth volume on his history of the First World War. He advises his literary agent that the volume will be titled: "THE AFTERMATH OF THE WORLD CRISIS" and would run between 100,000 and 125,000 words and advising Brown that he would like to discuss "the disposition of the rights in Canada and in the United States and in foreign countries generally." Two years later, Aftermath: 1918-1922 would be published by Thornton Butterworth. Churchill would follow this with a fifth volume in 1931 devoted to war's consequences in Eastern Europe.
