THROUGH JOHN WAYNE'S newly revealed personal correspondence, we share Duke's most intimate thoughts and the advice he shared with friends, family and world leaders. The John Wayne archives boast thousands of never before published letters to and from fans, celebrities, heads of state, presidents and many others.
John Wayne left a legacy as the quintessential American and leading man—one that we may never see again. In these letters and chronicles is assembled a story paired with rare photos from the family albums. This compendium lets you see inside the man: what he was facing, his circle of friends, his worldviews, as well as his unmatched patriotism. This is so much more than a collection of letters.
