As
long as I can remember, I have been addicted to books.
My life's partner,
Jean, has
been very patient but frequently promised
to put a book in my hands when
I am "laid to rest."
Unfortunately she preceded me.
To Jean, my first mate, I offer this historical tribute to her memory.
And to the authors who have come before me,
I humbly dedicate this book.
