Good to hear from you. I have been collecting information on Harrison for at least ten years now and in the process have become friendly with both of his children (who must be related to you). I've managed to amass quite a lot of his writings (the books obviously but he also wrote a huge number of articles for various magazines from the '30's up into the early '60's).
I just find him fascinating - a Westerner who traveled in the East (and everywhere else) but never seemed to consider himself better than anyone else in the world. The way he approached new experiences made him a true explorer and a fine human being. Let me know if you need any information about him. His archives are at the Univ. of Wisconsin at Milwaukee (mostly the photography collection) and at the Univ. of Oregon. I'll probably leave all the stuff I've collected to one of them at some point and hopefully at some point before I die I'll do something else with it like try to write a book about him.
Take care,
Rob
P.S. You can use my direct email to contact me in the future - robaft@roadrunner.com.
