I thought for several years about writing M. Stanton Evans to thank him for his book. He did original research, and backed his work up with documentation, or at least where the documentation had not been surreptitiously removed over the decades.
He is someone whose hand I would have liked to shake, and I envy you that you had some exposure to him. Thanks for sharing that.
Evans would spend the day working in his office on C Street SE on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. He had with him his three-legged dog Zip, who was very friendly and would spend most of the day sleeping on the floor.
