After people read my books, they often ask, “Where do you get all your research?” I wish there was a single, magic well of information that we could simply plumb for depths of ancient historical knowledge.

When I saw the “Evel Pie” sign on our recent “first timer’s” tour of Las Vegas, I thought: Those folks needed a better editor! Then I discovered the place was named after the motorcycle stunt driver, Evel Knievel.
