Author Information

Richard F. Novak, a sculptor for 40 years, has over seventy works in public spaces, corporate collections, and private collections. This book is the culmination of two years research. My original intent was to tell the story from the perspective of a sculptor. However, as I moved through the extensive research material available, the era and the fascinating men and women who touched on Thomas Crawford's life shaped an intriguing story which I felt must be included. Rather than present the story as another encyclopedic description of Crawford's achievements, I decided to bring these amazing characters to life in the genre of an historical novel. The dialogue is, of course, fictional, but the story is based on the actual events as they unfolded from 1835 to 1863. Novak is also a Professor Emeritus (MD) from the College of Medicine of the University of Illinois. For more see toppingthedome.com.
