Reminder ... Tom Cable ’64 to speak on
A History of the English Language

January 11, 2024

Classmates:

Last November I informed you about an upcoming Zoom event in our Class of 1964 Authors Book Club series. That event is now two weeks away, on January 25 at 4:00pm, so I'm reminding you of it and urging you to register if you haven't done so already. Register by clicking the following link:

Register by clicking here, and mark your calendar.

If you aren't sure whether you registered before, it does no harm to register again. You will receive a confirmation email with a link to the meeting. That link will be unique to you. On the morning of the event you will receive the meeting link again. You will not have to hunt for it. If your spouse is interested, she can register too.

Tom Cable is a professor emeritus at the University of Texas at Austin. He is the co-author of A History of the English Language, the standard, best-known, and most frequently quoted textbook in the field, in print through four editions over 45 years. On January 25 Tom will bring this textbook to life, by discussing why he finds the history of the English language so fascinating.

Herb Cook will be the moderator. Herb and Tom were four-year roommates in Wright Hall and Calhoun College. Herb, a retired journalist and publisher, lives with his wife Kathe on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington, a short ferry ride from Tom and Carole's home on Whidbey Island.

The ’64 Book Club requires no one to have read the book before attending, but if you are interested, you may buy Tom’s book on Amazon here.

I hope to see you at the ‘64 Book Club. Don't forget to register.

Cheers,
