What a wonderful passion — and now a full-time home for his collection — Andrew Carroll has!
According to all of the stories I've read about him, he is on a mission to save the war letters of America. A recent Associated Press news story explains that Andrew has been collecting war letters for 15 years. This fall, his collection of war letters will be in the Center for American War Letters at Chapman University in southern California.
I've written about Andrew's project before in this War Letters post. How wonderful it is that his project continues to grow!
You can read more about all this on the Chapman University site, the War Letters site, and by searching his name and or key words online. It's a fascinating story!

I'm about to watch the documentary you linked in your previous post about War Letters. This is a very interesting project.
ReplyDeleteGood gosh. I'm listening to the letters. I'm completely overwhelmed. It's beautiful, and so sad.
ReplyDeleteThis makes me think that maybe it's time I asked my grandma for my father's letters that he wrote during the war. Thanks for sharing.
