In the middle of the night, brain churning with thoughts about “the library,” the name Harlan Brooks came to mind. I mused “Will I come across his correspondence soon?” Seriously, it was about six letters down and less than one hour into today’s project.

Correspondence with Harlan J. Brooks June and August 1991

Dorothy Parker (mentioned in the letters) was a dear friend and “round about” family.  She was the step-mother of my husband’s first wife! Speaking of my husband: We were married forty years ago today on Memorial Day Sunday. It was a beautiful wedding in the gardens of Westmont College in Santa Barbara, California. Donald Edwards died in 1983.
