Assuming your thesis matches your e-mail address, 
it would probably be easiest to use the Brown 
thesis class:

http://olympus.het.brown.edu/~danieldf/latex/

The documentation is in the file itself.  Put it in ~/Library/texmf/latex

If you want to make your own version, you might 
want to use the memoir class and the setspace 
package for double spacing.  In any event the 
memoir manual is a fantastic guide to how to 
format long documents of this sort.  (In a 
terminal window, type texdoc memman to see it.)
