Acknowledgements

As is always the case, thanks are due to a great many people, this being more of a team effort than most writers like to admit. Thanks once again to Steve Cromwell for his continued excellent work on the covers of these books. Thanks as well to photographer Alistair Corbett for the use of his magnificent, moody image which so perfectly sets the tone. Thanks to Nicole Spiridakis for her careful and insightful editing and thanks to David Bellows for his on-going help in that department. Thanks as well to the good people at Maine Coast Book Shop and Maine Maritime Museum who are so kind about getting my books in the hands of readers. Thanks to my mother, Selma, and sister Stephanie for all their love and support, and to my kiddos, Elizabeth, Nathaniel, Jonathan and Abbey.

And, as ever, to Lisa, my shield-maiden.
