Rudder: From Leader to Legend, the first comprehensive biography of one of World War II’s foremost heroes who later put Texas A&M University on its path to prominence — Gen. James Earl Rudder — was unveiled during campus ceremonies Thursday with the book’s author, Thomas M. Hatfield, recalling his long association with Gen. Rudder. The unveiling ceremonies were in front of the campus statue of the general. This first public celebration of the Rudder book comes almost a month ahead of the date of its actual release, April 21. Subsequent book-signing opportunities with Hatfield will be on campus.
