E.P. Thompson, British historian. In "The Moral Economy of the English Crowd in the Eighteenth Century," Thompson engages the historiography of the topic and the topic itself with such thoroughness -- even though I cared little about the topic, it has become one of my favorite historical works. It remains influential in how I think about and interpret history.

The story of Julius S. Scott's Ph.D dissertation at Duke University (1986) from dissertation to a published book (2018) is noteworthy history itself. Post disseration, it was photocopied, saved to floppy discs, eventually saved to digital files, and then published. He passed in 2021. The dissertation enlivened research into the Haitian Revolution forming a "common wind" of its own. by @olb1915
