While you sweat through the heat of August here in the Northern Hemisphere (or put on another sweater for our friends in the Southern Hemisphere), why not take a crack at these letters between Doris Holmes Blake and her parents from the summer of 1933? We take for granted the many conveniences that make our weather extremes more comfortable, but these are completely unknown to the Holmes family. Join your fellow volunpeers in this fresh batch of letters that gives additional insight into Doris Holmes Blake's family relationships.
