Letters to George Broadrick 1946-1949

George Broadrick had been a classmate of Reece's at Young Harris College. While there, they had both been part of the Quill Club, a literary society sponsored by Professor Lufkin Dance. This group of men was a very influential part of young Reece's life. Young Harris College also has some of Reece's letters to James Gaskin, which will be added when resources allow.
