First and foremost, none of this could have existed but for the original writers, together with the editors who organized
the letters and arranged for publication:
Robert Gould Shaw — Russell Duncan
James Henry Gooding — Virginia M. Adams
George E. Stephens  – editor: Donald Yacovone
Luis F. Emilio needed no editor, because he wrote his fine and thorough book himself; but the introduction by Gregory J.W.
Urwin in the DaCapo edition is very useful in helping to learn more about Emilio himself.
The Massachusetts Historical Society has preserved much of the source material, especial the scrapbooks that Emilio create
d in researching and writing his book.
The very reliable Fujitsu ScanSnap scanner together with the FineReader software (for ScanSnap).
Graphic Converter from Lemke Software GmbH
The Apple MacBook Pro on which I ran all my development software.
The open source WordPress software and the open source MySQL database source used by WordPress.
As with so many of my projects, my good friend and colleague Chuck Houpt was an invaluable resource, from first letting me
try out his scanner, to suggesting that I use WordPress when I first embarked on another blogging-related project and hel
ped me become a journyman user, to reading much of the posted material and making many valuable suggestions.
Finally, but not least, my wife Charletta, who led me to see many things with different eyes.
