Dear Mother Dear Father Letters Home from John Corcoran Wallis 1927 – 1949 by Bernadette Wallis MSS contains a series of letters written by Fr John Wallis to his parents and family, which give us a rare and precious insight into his life as a seminarian and young priest. They also reflect a growing development of his piety and spirituality.
