@Peanut This article was written last month, found in the Apalachicola Times. Dr. Chapman lived in the Florida panhandle for many years and a botanical garden in Apalachicola bears his name. It sounds like a fascinating place to visit.
Chasing Shadows: A deeper look at Dr. Chapman
On amazon I found at least one book Dr. Chapman wrote: "Flora of the Southern United States," but it is also available on Google reads for free as an ebook. It is 655 pages.
On amazon, the publisher is "Forgotten Books." Perhaps you could also find this kind of stuff on "Project Gutenberg: Free ebooks".
Also of interest might be WorldCat. It is a library catalog that spans the world, created in the 1960s to enable libraries to offer many different collections of books, ETC. U of A
Also Hathitrust might have items you'd be interested in reading.
At the U. Of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, for $25 you can get a one year membership to the university library system. You can keep items out for 30 days but if a card holder requests it while you have it out, you have to return it with a 14 day check out period. I found that the University also has the book listed above by Dr. Chapman, electronically, and maybe hard copy. Some items can not be taken out of the library.
