ABCDEFG

The letter to elizabeth ames (from Porter) on July 1, 1942 is interesting when considered next to Pale Horse, as she is writing at a time when US troops are mobilizing for a war effort, much like 1917. In it, she talks about what happens to youth in war time, as well as just general emotions sparked by the thought of death and waste. Plus, she wrote it from CU boulder, so that's neat. (pgs 241-242)
