More About the Author

Tom Thomas is my "pen name". I grew up in Central New York, took political science and English Literature at Syracuse University and have loved the subjects ever since. After graduation from Syracuse, I attended and graduated from its law school. I practiced law and invested in commercial real estate and have owned several businesses from fast food to newspapers. I am a musician and an artist and so books that I publish include those subjects. I find that many books are "out of print" or, because the copyright no longer is applicable, are only available in dirty volumes or publications that are damaged in some way. Publishing these works in crisp and clean editions gives me pleasure and a joy I share with readers who love the same subjects that intrigue me.
