[[preprinted]] ORVILLE WRIGHT DAYTON, OHIO [[/preprinted]] June 25, 1945. Major Lester D. Gardner, Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences, New York 20, New York. Dear Lester:- I am returning the copy of the "Ace Air Reporter" which you sent for my inspection last January. Please pardon my delay in returning it. I read it at that time and I found very little in it that was at the same time important and true. A better description of the book can hardly be offered than that in the first sentence of the forward where the author says: "This is a book not of facts". One of these days, when the literary spirit moves me, I may write up some of the matters on which you desire more details. Sincerely yours, [[signature]] Orville Wright [[/signature]]
