Archduke Ludwig Salvator of Austria was touched to receive the gift of Roosevelt’s The Wilderness Hunter. He would have sent his thanks sooner, but he wanted to finish reading the book first, and now tells Roosevelt of his deep enjoyment of the book. Salvator tells Roosevelt about some of his recent travels, and his plans to make a study of Southern Albania that he hopes to send to Roosevelt.
