At Home - Bill Bryson [244]
I am also indebted in ways too numerous to cite to Carol Heaton, Fred Morris, Gerry Howard, Marianne Velmans, Deborah Adams, Dan McLean, Alison Barrow, Larry Finlay, Andrew Orme, Daniel Wiles, and Tom and Nancy Jones. I must express particular thanks to my children, Catherine and Sam, for much heroic and good-natured assistance. Above all, and as always, my greatest thanks is to my dear and infinitely patient wife, Cynthia.
