We state and prove an explicit evaluation of a certain multi-variate integral and use it to furnish a new, and shorter, proof of an elegant determinant identity of Michael Dougherty and Jon McCammond that came up in their study of critical values.


Acknowledgment: We wish to thank Peter Larcombe for insightful remarks on an earlier draft, that improved the readability considerably.
