The Assassin's Doctor: The Life and Letters of Dr. Samuel A. Mudd
My new, and undoubtedly last, book on Dr. Mudd — The Assassin’s Doctor: The Life and Letters of Dr. Samuel A. Mudd — is now available at Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Assassins-Doctor-L...27s+Doctor
This is a big 730 page book. It includes pretty much everything I know about Dr. Mudd, plus the full text of many historical documents concerning him. This should make it a handy reference for anyone researching his life.
Wholesale pricing is available for bookstores and other resellers at:

Now, the real question is, how do I go about getting an autographed copy?
Thanks, Dave. My address is: 3820 North Dittmar Road, Arlington, Virginia. The next time you are up this way, please bring your copy by and I’ll be glad to sign it. It would be great to meet you.

Thanks, Laurie. I know shelf space for books is limited, so I appreciate your considering it.

Hi Roger. I haven’t spent much time on anything for the past several weeks except the new book, but I haven’t forgotten the web site. I want to have the new book and the web site complement, but not duplicate, each other. For example, I have a number of videos for the web site that obviously can’t go in a book. And a lot more photos. I’ll figure it out, hopefully sooner rather than later.

Thanks, Rich. “The Mudd Encyclopedia” — I wish I’d thought of that. It would have made a great sub-title for the book.
