Acknowledgments

In making proper acknowledgment of the help which was so generously given to me by so many people while this book was in preparation, I must mention first of all Mrs. Kathryn Lewis, who made available the invaluable files of notes collected over many years by her husband, the late Lloyd Lewis. These files provided the foundation on which the book was written, and to work with them was a most rewarding experience. I am profoundly grateful to Mrs. Lewis.

In the course of his researches, Lewis interviewed many people and was given access to private letters and documents. An attempt has been made to give proper credit to these people in the various footnote citations, and if any have been omitted the fault is my own and an all-inclusive apology is hereby offered.
