I learned two things I'd never known before from this write-up:
1. Robert's a "Jr." (seriously? how'd that one slip by?)
2. Robert's an Historian (again, news to me)
So, of our sad little class of 18 we've now got a bona fide director (see: Nikyatu Jusu) and a published author. Plus, I think Marshall did the dust jacket design?

Robert Hartle is a man of many talents and a scholar to be respected along with the greats. A man with many passions, hobbies, and transferable tax credits. I recommend his book to anyone wanting to learn about life, love, and the beautiful rolling hills of N. Druid Hills.. A classic in the making. D.L. Hughley
