Discovered at a 1997 estate sale, 1,000 letters dated 1899 − 1943 were about to go to auction. On an impulse, lifelong adventurer Wendy Drake bought them. Fifteen years later, every letter offered endless routes for exploration into other people’s lives and Drake’s. Letter after letter led to dead ends, dead people, and her resistance to explore a recurring subject: herself.
Running to Thousand Letters is Drake’s debut memoir available in paperback and via e-copy.
