[REDACTED] and requested this information be kept strictly confidential.
He added that [REDACTED] is a long time friend and [REDACTED] He is of the opinion she read the book, furnished her appraisal of it, and returned it to him. He does not believe she would have made the contents of the book available to anyone else.
He was unaware of who might have read the book for Random House Publishing Company, but in view of the very short time they kept the book he knows it could not have been widely read or even thoroughly reviewed.
