In the course of researching the book, I enjoyed the hospitality of Keith Brown and of Peter Christophersen in Norway, of John Sutherland in Pasadena, of Mimi Summerskill and her family in New Jersey, and of Mrs. Charles Marsh in Washington, D.C.
The authorship of copyright materials from which extracts have been quoted is made clear either in the text or in the notes, or both. The claims in copyright of the authors of those materials or their heirs and assigns are acknowledged by the author and publishers of this book. The process of deciding what I might and might not quote has been facilitated by some copyright holders who simply gave me outright permission, either in advance or after reading relevant sections of the book in draft.
I am particularly grateful to the following:
