I’m pleased to announce that the Harvey Family Collection that I relied on for primary research for Appetite for America has been donated to the fabulous New Mexico History Museum in Santa Fe, and the finding aid has just been put up online by Tomas Jaehn of the Chavez Library.

Thanks to Daggett and Stewart Harvey and Helen Harvey Mills for sharing their collections with me, and now with other researchers, and thanks to Tomas the museum for such a helpful finding aid.

May Fred’s stuff be with you.
