Brief Description: The Quimby and Milosh Mamula TWAP Papers span the years from 1965-1967 and include letters to and from Quimby and Milosh Mamula during their time in Nigeria as a part of the Teachers for West Africa Program. The letters cover a wide variety of topics relevant to the Mamulas' personal life including cultural differences, the birth and early months of their first child, the military coup in Nigeria, challenging weather conditions, challenges with teaching, travels to other countries within Africa, and their plans after the TWAP program. This collection is organized chronologically, with the two letters sent from Verna and Eric Bogren to the Mamula’s being separate from the letters from the Mamulas. The letters dated in January 1965 are incorrectly dated and should be labeled as January 1966.
