[Letter from Harry R. Snapp to Helen Wyatt Snapp, August 4, 1994]

Letter from UNT History Professor Harry F. Snapp to Helen Wyatt Snapp discussing the development of a book meant to "preserve a number of WASPs as historical personages as well as the best context for preserving historically the place of WASPs as a group." The book's intended audience will be college women, high school girls, and young adult women. Harry Snapp asks Helen Snapp for her cooperation in making the book possible. The letter contains a handwritten P. S. that includes his contact information, should Helen wish to contact him.
