Dedication

To my mom, Gail Cadenhead. I'm disappointed you abandoned the beehive hairdo you had in the '60s, but that's the last time you ever disappointed me in the 45 years of my life. Thank you for the room and board, for the love and support, and for introducing me to Ryan's Hope and One Life to Live when I was 8.

Acknowledgements

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 Boris Minkin, Gayle Johnson, Songlin Qiu, Anne Goebel, and Mark Taber. Most of all, thanks to my wife, Mary, and my sons, Max, Eli, and Sam.
