They say a messy desk is the sign of a creative tenant. William F. Buckley was certainly prolific!
It has been said that if you were looking for William F. Buckley during his life, the first place to check was his study, which he converted from a garage. It was here, surrounded by mementos, books, and paintings (some of which he did himself), that he would toil on his columns and novels, and it was here that he was found dead when he passed away in 2008.
