ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I want to thank my agent Tracy Bohan, and my editor Angus Cargill for their support; my friend and neighbor Doug Swanson, whose farm and dog inspired the story; and the following, who read the manuscript and told me what they thought of it: Richard Donovan, Sara Kallenbach, Graham Lewis, Tim McCarthy, Christina Nalty, and Jay Prefontaine. Martin Pegler’s Out of Nowhere provided an excellent history of sniping. I found most of my lead character’s Elizabethan vocabulary in David Crystal and Ben Crystal’s Shakespeare’s Words: A Glossary and Language Companion.
