Crandall in Kansas
The last decade+ of Crandall's life was filled with interesting episodes
Rodney O. Davis
(1932-2019)
Rodney O. Davis was the finest scholar to examine Crandall's life in Kansas. His article on this is thorough, readable, and fascinating. I had the pleasure of meeting him in the early years of the 21st century, at his office on the Knox College campus.
