Deep Springs

spiral bound book,

8.5 x 11 in.

Scanned and OCR'd by Denis Clark and Jan Vleck, 10/2014. The scan file sizes were quite large, and because of the reproduction process in the original, photos did not reproduce well. The online compromise was to produce a small version of the entire memoir (113 pp), and higher-quality versions of chapters 3 (5 pp) and 8 (8 pp), concerning Deep Springs. Photo subjects in Ch 3 include Valley scenes, Ludwig Thomsen, Deep Springs Harry, Deep Springs Mary, LL Nunn, student groups, and Maude (Harry's burro). Photo subjects from Ch 8 include a standard range of images a Deep Springer might collect - students, groups, and activities. Some of these photos are also found elsewhere in the archives, others I have not seen. DEC 10/2017
