I Finished Writing My Book!

Last updated on November 20, 2020

Nearly five years ago I had the euphoric experience of solving a real-life mystery that had stumped the people of Corsicana, Texas, for well over a century: who was the man buried in their Jewish cemetery under a tombstone engraved with only two words, “Rope Walker”?

Now, I’m finally done writing a book about this man, who they call “Rope Walker,” and the legend about his fall from a tightrope in 1884 in the town’s commercial center, titled, appropriately, Rope Walker: A Texas Jewish History Mystery. SOLVED! Look at this book cover. See anything unusual? Right! He had a wooden leg! Or was it his left, as shown in this 1936 drawing? And what is that on his back!??
