I’ll depart from my usual posting praxis here to plug Adam Gorightly’s new book Agent of Disruption. He just sent me a copy, and I find it fascinating. It’s a comprehensive (556 pages) biography of Fred Lee Crisman, that perplexing figure whose name pops up in the Shaver Mystery, the Maury Island incident, the Kennedy assassination, and other Fortean and conspiratorial topics like a stubborn weed. John and I often discussed Crisman, and at one point John lent me a copy of Murder of a City, the book Crisman wrote under his pseudonym Jon Gold. Gorightly has unearthed an astonishing amount of material about Crisman, so, if you’ve ever been curious about him, snap up a copy. I won’t link to Amazon, but I’m sure you know where to find the site on your gizmo.
