Here is a copy of Richard's dissertation (parts of which he's shared with us here on this blog). I tried several times with my digital camera to get a clean picture, but the gold lettering glistened so well....
I literally ate this dissertation in a huge gulp! Richard told me, in his humble way, that he thought I might be bored with it- that it repeated several things over a time or three, but I found it fascinating! I blasted through it, devouring it page by page..and the appendices in the rear- oh. boy! Picture after picture, copy after copy of letters, documents, etc.! There was even a letter to Clyde Clifford from a police department near New Orleans, LA who mentioned that they listened in and were big fans- and that if he ever got caught speeding in their district, that particular letter was literally his "get out of jail free card"!
It was so much fun reading it, I literally forgot to get dressed!
OOPS! Where was my shirt????
Thank you, Richard!

Is there, please do pray tell, an online location for this dissertation? Other eyes (i.e., mine) wish for the chance to so gulp. :-)
ReplyDeleteRussell:
ReplyDeleteYes, the dissertation is available through ProQuest. If you go to a library that has a subscription (I think most do), you can access it there. You can order a copy directly from ProQuest. If my memory serves me correctly, it is available either bound or perhaps via electronic file, such as a PDF. I don't know what the charge is, and no, I do not receive royalties from the sale of it. Bud Stacey sent me your e-mail, so I will respond to that as well. Thank you for your interest and Merry Christmas!
