A lecture and book-signing by James E. Crisp, North Carolina State University,
who will discuss the origin and implications of his new book:
Wednesday, March 2, 2005
SMU Barnes and Noble Bookstore at 3060 Mockingbird Lane (in the Park Cities Plaza, just west of the intersection of Mockingbird and Central Expressway / I-75).
6:30 to 8:30 pm. Books will be available for purchase.
Sleuthing the archives, including those at DeGolyer Library, James Crisp has made important finds—and revisions—to Texas history. He will discuss how he applied his expertise in Texas history and followed clues that led him to significant discoveries. Ron Tyler of the Texas State Historical Association described Crisp’s book as “a fascinating historical adventure … Crisp shows us how little we know about such familiar events and personalities and suggests challenging implications for his new findings.”
