The Russell Archives

I have begun boxing up and donating a vast collection of research materials that I’ve gathered over the years in writing hundreds of articles and ten books. My extensive collection related to the Kennedy assassination and recent American history is going to Baylor University, which already has amassed material from numerous researchers in the field. (See www.baylor.edu/lib/poage) Files related to my book on “Black Genius” will be going to Northeastern University in Boston. My papers related to striped bass and fisheries conservation, utilized for my book “Striper Wars,” are available at the Northeast Fisheries Science Center in Sandy Hook, New Jersey.
