I've read one book on Emacs Lisp, so I bet that
was this one:

  * Chassell, Robert J. (2004). An introduction
    to Programming in Emacs Lisp. Boston:
    GNUpress. ISBN 1-882114-56-6. [1]

It also says: "He left the FSF to become
a full-time speaker on free software topics."
Full-time speaker on free software, ay?
Not many of those around what I've met! (RJC
died in 2017.)

These two URLs seem interesting:
