Anybody know how to get a copy of Tom Blake’s “The Voice of the Atom”?

I’ve found plenty of refreences to it online, but not the actual text.

Thanks for any pointers.

Tom Blake’s “The Voice of the Atom” is not a book but a short essay. It was offered in Surfer Mag years ago. But I couldn;t get it either. Anyone else know where can get a copy?

Hi Paul, That page is hard to read, could you turn it up a bit maybe to make it legible? Tom is a great guy it would be nice to read some of his writing. Thanks, Emma.

Seems the download size won’t allow a bigger picture…

Maybe someone with a scanner or other means, might do it better…

Ooops. Nope.

The Surfer’s Journal, Vol. 8 No. 3 (July 1999), Tom Blake article is “The Voice of the Wave”. Auwe. I’m looking for his 1969 essay, “The Voice of the Atom.” I Emailed Tom Stone (Pohaku), who teaches history of ancient Hawaiian atheletics at Kapiolani Community College, to see if he knows where to find it.

Thanks, all.

So, Ambrose? Are Tom Blake’s two “Voice” essays in Lynch’s “Uncommon Journey” biog? I just ordered it from Croul Foundation last week, should arrive few days, weeks.

Emailed Gary Lynch, and got one quick reply. He says Spencer Croul, at Surfer’s Heritage Foundation, is custodian of Tom Blake material. So, I wrote him about getting copies of both Blake “Voice of…” essays.

Seriously, I will be in your neighborhood. You stay Kauai, Hanalei side, yeah? Coming over next week (11/17-23). Friend of mine is new Kahu at Waioli Hui’ia Church. I’m starting to get serious about studying “Hawaii Local” as the “ethnic” context of Methodists in Honolulu. My church in Honolulu is the oldest, founded 1888 as Japanese immigrant church, now fully transitioned. I’m looking for new conceptual baseline for community-building, identity shift from post-immigrant to Hawaii Local. Can I leaf through stack Ambrose? Talk story this-and-that? Maybe you point me to some local Micronesian-style canoe builders (the sailing proa)? At least recommend a good cup o’ coffee in Hanalei Town?

Thanks. Enjoy your Swaylock’s Posts.
