Dear Doug: First, let me express my envy of your opportunity to go to Augusta this weekend.1 I think that if I could fly down there each Friday evening and back each Sunday evening, this job would have more charm than it now seems to have.
I remember that Stanley High talked to me about doing some writing, but I really thought he was doing nothing but an article or two for Reader's Digest.2 It seems to me he will have a hard time making a book out of the incidents of the campaign. However, he is a great character and, in many ways, a splendid writer. He may produce something that will hold a real interest for your readers. At least I hope so.
With warm regard, As ever
