HENRY C. LINK 522 FIFTH AVENUE NEW YORK December 18, 1944 Dr. Ludwig Van Mises 777 West End Avenue New York 25, New York Dear Sir: It has been very gratifying to see the reception of your book, The Road to Serfdom, not only by the critics generally, but by the public. The Macmillan Company has just published a new printing of my book, The Rediscovery of Man, which analyzes the psychological causes for the trend which you so well described. I am sending an autographed copy with my compli- ments. May I call your attention especially to chapter 11, "Personality or Slavery", and the title chapter. Since its publication by Macmillan in 1938, the book has gone through twelve printings and reached sales of over five thousand copies. It did not have nearly the reception by the critics which was accorded your book, but, nevertheless, the great interest in this field helped to carry it across. Cordially yours Henry C. Link
