Reeves, this book is respectfully dedicated.  | |

There are more departures to make than precedents to follow. To have a history may be an old land's glory and safeguard: to make history is a new land's perilous employment.'
Epilogue. The search for identity. (Klik for at vise Advarsel: Kan indeholde afsløringer.) | |
