There were very few, if any, areas of study that did not fascinate Carter. He loved to read. And, after reading something of value, he loved to discuss it with others.

I think it's fair to say that Rube's interest in Native American culture was sparked -- at least in part -- by our friendship. He opened the doors to many other schools of thought for me.
