See my Freeppage. I had posted Whittaker Chambers’ letter to his children, and his grandson emailed me and politely and nicely asked me to remove it, which I complied with.

One of the most moving books to me.

When I first read it, I thought it was primarily about politics. When I read it the second time, I realized it was about a man’s search for God.

I once was on a plane trip with a fellow that owned the old farm that Whittaker Chambers retired to with his wife and kids. He knew the history of it when he bought it and said he was never going to sell it.

The Pumpkin Papers were in that pumpkin patch.
