Amarillo Youth Studying Art Abroad Reports Life in Geneva
A letter from 20 year old Joe D McReynolds, son of E C and family of Amarillo, describes studying fine arts at Ecole des Beaux-Arts et Metiers in Geneva after leaving the United States in September. He recounts meals, language exchange, and a homesick note about bread and milk shortages in France, and mentions seeing peasants in wooden shoes.
