The artist Domingo Saglimbene writes to Fridolf Johnson the executive editor of American Artist magazine inquiring as to whether they might be "interested in the possible publication of a manuscript dealing with the development of an artist. I thought perhaps since the work gives an altogether unusual insight into the creative process you might consider it suitable for the magazine." He goes on to explain that most of what is published regarding artists is written by people other than the artist himself. Titling the work "The Flight of Swallows" he describes the various aspects of the work which has four chapters starting with the artist's boyhood and the artist's relationship to other people and women. Signed in full "Domingo Saglimbene". The pages are stapled together at top left and folded for mailing.
