Stand by for Defying Gravity

"An artist's only concern is to shoot for some kind of perfection,
and on his own terms, not anyone else's"
--JD Salinger

Defying Gravity: The Parallel Universe of
T. Townsend Brown

An underground "Cult Classic"

Now available on the Amazon Kindle eBook Reader! Here is the raw, unexpurgated, all-in, "kitchen sink" version of the authorized biography of Thomas Townsend Brown.

Genius inventor, gentleman spy and mystic warrior, Brown is the enigmatic scientist who demonstrated the link between electricity and gravity in the 1920s, before disappearing behind a curtain of classified military research and covert intelligence operations after World War II.

This is the first-ever comprehensive attempt to follow Brown's bizarre odyssey. It was originally written online from 2005-2008 with the aid of "reliable sources" with first-hand knowledge of Brown's covert activities.

Now available for the Amazon.com Kindle eBook Reader.

(Hard copy from Amazon.com coming soon.)

The e-version is now available at lulu.com

(If you purchased a copy of Defying Gravity prior to February 27, 2009,
please download a copy of the Acknowledgements section which has beeen added to the text.)

If reading nearly 600 pages on-screen doesn't sound ideal, there is now also a
hardcopy edition
(but the manufacturing costs are steep, so it's kinda pricey).
