Scope and Contents This is a collection of letters (and telegrams) written by Umberto Nobile to Hermine Speier during June through October of 1938.

Scope and Contents This is a collection of letters (and telegrams) written by Umberto Nobile in Joliet, Illinois to Hermine Speier in Rome during August and September of 1939.
