Sons and Daughters of the Force

Sons and Daughters of the Force is a gen Star Wars newsletter with at least forty-seven issues. They average 50 pages each.
In November 1981, there was a notice in Jundland Wastes #5/6 that this zine was "organizing a letter-writing campaign to insure that Luke Skywalker will be the one to walk away in Revenge of the Jedi."
