Acknowledgments

Gra tude goes first and foremost to our predecessors for having
wri en and drawn with fine imagina on and cra ; second and
secondmost to you for having ongoing enthusiasm for such things. I
must thank many an ins tu on for providing a domain to the public
for material from public domain, most notably The Gutenberg Project
(www.gutenberg.org) at which you will find thousands upon
thousands of free books, at the ready for purloining such as I have
done. Similarly vast is WikiMedia, though they’re a bit less persnickety
about ensuring works have entered the public domain. Sources of
deligh ul art may be found at pixabay.com, and also through Dover
Publica ons (doverpublica ons.com). I encourage you to spend some

 me at the poetryfounda on.org; their mission statement alone is
inspiring. You might also enjoy the en cing op on in Google’s search
engine to filter for works which have no rights restric ons; click that
and any sort of random word, and enjoy the adventure. Lastly, I bow
to your vast, inexhaus ble public libraries’ websites, especially the Los
Angeles Public Library (lapl.org), the New York Public Library (nypl.org)
and the incredibly‐moving and addic ng Library of Congress (loc.gov ‐
so much to do and see there!). Do visit as many of these sites as you
can; you’ll never lack for something to read.

I must also thank my indefa gable staff: Robin Wriggle, Donald
Dunsmuir, Walter Granby, Orville Sni er, Ari DeGroot, Mum Stobe,
Eddie Galle , Mr. Munro, Vivian Darkbloom, and of course Henry
Fowler.
