HUGE kudos bro...don't mind ol' Henry II...just being Henry...

This is a great achievement and not to be overlooked...that took
A LOT of effort...heck, just the proofreads alone! I've written a book
before...brutal process of redoing and then again and again...

For those who have ears to hear, this is a work to impact and you're open
to conversation as well for the few willing to discuss...says a lot about your
hunger to represent this great artist.

Once again, thanks for sharing and congratulations for persevering...
behind every great work was a desire to pack it in many times.
Agree with all your research or not, the effort is highly deserving of respect.

Thanks so much for the warm response! I sincerely hope that whomever reads it can get something out of it. It's so difficult to squeeze everything worthwhile in, even with a 100,000 word limit because there are certain requirements for contextualisation that need to be fulfilled.

Incidentally, for anyone in the English-speaking world outside of Australia, all the spelling is strictly Australian. "Bight" is not a new word, it's how we spell the word related to a certain kind of gnashing of the teeth here in the Antipodean world.

As I said initially, too, I'm more than happy to engage in dialogue with you about the contents of the thesis if you have any questions.

Regards,

DG

Yeah...they suck the life out of the passion at times.

Now that the fire's hot, you might consider writing this into a book format...
lay it out as a good read for the drummer interested in Tony.
That's a different kind of hard, but would reach a larger audience.

Sure there are a few proofreaders in HOD that would help out.
