[ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ] The Epistle of David The Chronicler This book was written at the end of the summer of 1964 from David Frangquist to Norman Nelson. Norman Nelson had been a summer stand-in ArchDruid of Carleton, after Fisher stepped down, from April of 1964 to September of 1964, at which point Frangquist became ArchDruid of Carleton until April of 1966. Norman Nelson had graduated in June of 1964 and moved back home to South Dakota. As mentioned in the End-Notes, above, the grove in ques- tion was his cabin. He later started a grove at Vermilion, S.D., at his grad-school. David Frangquist was writing this letter after having published The Druid Chronicles (Reformed), and Frangquist was about to be- gin his two year Arch-Druidcy of Carleton. In many ways, Frangquist was a major shaper of how Druidism would develop at Carleton for decades. Frangquist wrote the Druid Chronicles (Reformed), as- 87 BABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABABAB sembled the Green Book, (and with his wife Deborah Gavrin from the Carleton Druids.
