To my sons Max, Eli, and Sam Cadenhead. I am extremely proud to be your dad, no matter what you tell your mother about my cooking.
A book of this scope (and heft!) requires the hard work and dedication of numerous people. Most of them are at Sams Publishing in Indianapolis, and to them I owe considerable thanks -- in particular, to Karen Annett, Adam DeFields, Mandie Frank, Songlin Qiu, Mark Taber, and former Sams editor Scott Meyers. Most of all, thanks to my wife and my sons.
