Franklin Hichborn letter to Andrae Nordskog
Manuscripts
In this letter Hichborn says he was unable to locate a copy of his book, "The System" that Nordskog had requested. Hichborn says that he is not surprised that Nordskog was unable to find the book in public libraries because both The System and The Story of the California Legislature of 1915 concerned "crooked Jews" and were the subject of censorship and suppression via book burners. He suggests that the book may be found in the Hichborn Collection at the University of California Library Los Angeles.
