Historians who continue this project
RGHF AMBASSADOR, The Books of Rotary Travels PDG Ron Sekkel, PHF: Enrolled Agent, Rotary Club of Scotts Valley, CA D5170. Member of the fellowship since November of 2003. He joined the archive in November of 2005. Editor and writer for our books section.

PDG Sekkel has a very interesting perspective on Paul Harris. Sekkel stopped using airplanes, for travel, about 20 years ago. In that time, he as “sailed” to many of the places visited by Paul and Jean Harris. Having read all of their travels in the “Peregrinations” he is prepared to write a perspective of Rotary/travel then and now. An insight into the world of Paul Harris from 70 some years later. If he attends next year’s convention it will be by boat to an area of the world which Harris visited in 1932.
