MARTIN'S PRESS Thomas J. McCormack April 3, 1996 Chairman To: David Irving Chief Executive Officer Editorial Director After much thought, we have made the decision not to publish your book _Goebbels_. The fact is that, at the time we acquired your book, we were without information essential to our decision. I am not going to address the question of whether that ignorance renders the contract unenforceable since I am going to live up to its explicit terms. Under the terms of your contract with us for the book, our decision entitles you to terminate the contract, retain the advance already paid to you and reacquire the rights to your book. Our contracts director will be happy to give your agent the paperwork to accomplish this.cc: Mr. Edward A. Novak
