Remarks: |
This pamphlet
is an appeal to Lord Beaverbrook to retract the libellous
statements previously published in his newspaper The Sunday
Express.
Although this pamphlet was published under Norman Mudd’s
name, it’s
believed that Crowley participated in its writing.3
Crowley had Norman Mudd send a copy of this pamphlet to various
friends and important people including members of the House of
Lords, Scotland Yard and the British Press. |
