Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Edward S. Curtis

President Roosevelt received Edward S. Curtis’s letter and returns it here. While he does not want to criticize it in detail, he is in general agreement with the whole thing. Because he sympathizes with Curtis’s work, he will write the letter of introduction, but he wants to know how long it should be and by when he should have it done.
