Dedication:
To Barbara, Felicity, Isobelle and Ray for your important input
during the writing and rewriting of this, my most difficult project.
Thank you for your support and your willingness to share your
special talents.
And, of course, to Marlene, my wife, who is learning to appreciate
the world and her husband - at 3am
Epigraph:
As long as the generations continue,
the memories must live.
As long as the memories live,
so the generations must continue.
