I need to find the 32 page letter that Mary Exa Atkins Campbell wrote during the 1906 earthquake. We are reading the book 'Earthquake at Dawn' and it says a littl here and there about her letter. But my teacher is requiring me to find this letter on the internet, and im not having any luck what so ever! so if you know any idea where it could be PLEASE notify me. thank you so much and thank you for your time ~Macie
