Seth Goldsmith of the University of Massachusetts found Linda Manor for me and helped immeasurably throughout, lending me counsel as well as many books and articles. Ann Hallock performed a variety of difficult tasks ingeniously and thoroughly. Elizabeth Coughlan helped to organize my notes. My thanks to Larry Cooper, the estimable manuscript editor. I got help and comfort from all of the following: Jerry Avorn, Robert Bagg, Madeleine Blais, Georges Borchardt, William Cooley, Blanche Cooney, Stuart Dybek, Ed Etheredge, Elise Feeley, Warren Fisher, Sandy Goroff-Mailly, Jonathan Harr, Joe Kanon, John Katzenbach, Jamie Kilbreth, Cindy Klein, Mark Kramer, John O'Brien, Barnaby Porter, Susan Porter, Tim Rivinus, Mike Rosenthal, Allison Ryan, Norman Spencer, John Sterling—and also from Alice, Fran, and Nat. I wish to thank the Berkshire Eagle for allowing me the freedom of their files, and the Cooley Dickinson Hospital for allowing me to observe a cataract operation. I also wish to thank the many people who submitted to interviews. I am grateful to all of the staff and management of Linda Manor, to relatives and friends of residents, and, above all, to those dozens of residents with whom I spent a year indoors. I am greatly indebted, once again, to Richard Todd.
