A book demands patience, mostly from those around the author. I thank Sandy Webster for her sense of humour in editing this book in its first release. I thank Kate Whitfield and Jennifer Dougherty for their guidance for this updated release. Tom Gilliatt has my gratitude for seeing the book’s renewed potential, as does Anna McFarlane. My agent Deborah Callaghan has been a guide in uncertain times over many years. I owe her a big favour.
Any errors of fact are mine.
