I
brought dozens of boxes home after my father's funeral in 1999:
photos, letters, writings. Since I have no children myself,
they might never be appreciated again. And there are more
stories to tell.
So,
in light of my own mortality, I resolved to make part of my archives
available to you, dear reader. In October of 2000, I began
posting material on the Internet.
My
full name is Thomas Buckingham Thomas. People call me Tom, but
I chose the fancier "T.
Buckingham Thomas" for
this website.
From
the start in 2000, the address was geocities.com/tbtho. Then
in 2009 I finally got a domain
of my own, t2buck.com.

SITE

During
the first five months of 2016, I'm told that this website had 1,630
visitors, 84% of them new. A typical visitor used Google
Chrome, reached the site via a search engine, and viewed two pages
for 3 minutes 39 seconds.
It's
not just a simple
personal web page. Though updated regularly,
it's more like an autobiographical book, with several hundred
articles. I've provided various ways to find them.
Each of the twelve colorful topic buttons to your left takes you to
a site submap that lists maybe a couple of dozen articles, in
chronological order by subject matter, with the most ancient subject
first. You'll also find lists of related "short subjects."
Click here for a couple of other submaps, for audio
clips and for "Threads
of Correspondence."
My Biography
is a brief sketch; for details about each point, you can click on the
numerous links provided.
Recently added articles are announced on the Home page.
