Susan’s Corner

Notes from the research desk

A weekly column gets 600 words. The research behind it rarely fits. Susan’s Corner is where the rest will live: the story behind the story, the archive find that raised more questions than it answered, the reader letter that sent her back to the stacks.

The first notes are still on the desk. Everything published here will be original writing, companion pieces to the books and the column rather than reprints of either.

Until the corner fills in, the weekly Flagstaff History column is the best place to read Susan Johnson right now, and the books are the deep end.
