This book is written by a granddaughter of Nollie Bell Hill and Enoch Godwin. This Volume 10 presents their collected messages from friends, extended family members, and their children. This is the final volume in a continued effort to make the Godwin Archives collection of letters as complete as possible and to make it available to all family members. This volume covers messages spanning the years of the 1960s and 1970s before the death of Enoch and Nollie.

Comments follow each letter. The intent was to identify each person mentioned and to edify the reader as to the era. An attempt has been made so that each letter might stand alone or be read in chronological order by those who want to pursue the Godwin family life during the latter years of Enoch and Nollie.

There is a picture of the writer before each letter on the left and one of the recipient on the right. Pictures of approximately the right age were used when available. The Appendix/Index has more extended information on the people and places mentioned.

The Addendum section contains a reprint of the booklet, "Your Eggs and My Eggs: Stories of the Godwin Home Place." It is included because the booklet is now out-of-print and should be passed on to younger generations who will learn much about their roots from it. This booklet has its own Appendix-Index.

The Addendum also includes an Update section with pictures and messages which came to light after the volume where they should appear was published. This section is indexed with the main part of the book.

At the end is a third index with only names and the Godwin Archive volume numbers where each is mentioned.
