I
n the writing of this book, special thanks are due to Nils and Carolyn Schoultz for constant support and encouragement. Without them and others like them who showered their love on me during difficult times, this book would not have been possible.

I wish to thank my editor, David Highfill, for his careful attention to detail, his encouragement, and most of all his patience in my delivery of the manuscript.

And finally to my literary agent, Esther Newberg of ICM, I owe thanks for placing this book with a caring publisher and for exercising sound business judgment, which she always does.
