Lee, David S.

When Lee's grandfather Julian Weatherbee died in the mid-1970s, he inherited his old rolltop desk. His grandfather had attended the Biltmore Forest School in 1908 and spent most of his career as a forester in the state of Washington. Inside the desk Lee found a treasure trove of his grandfather's material from the school--class and field notebooks, information about birds and wildlife, drawings, and mathematical calculations which provided him a view of life at the forestry school.
