Appreciation is expressed to the Reverend Billy Graham
and to HarperCollins for allowing us to quote remarks
he made about marriage to David Frost in the book
David Frost Talks With Billy Graham published in 1971
by A.J. Holman Company, affiliated with J.B. Lippincott
of Philadelphia.
Appreciation is also expressed to Viking and the Met-
ropolitan Museum of Art for permission to use in chap-
ter 2 some information about famous painters presented
in the Met’s trademark series “What Makes a . . . a . . . ?”
Graphic artist Kathi Quesenberry is the creator of both
the hardcover book jacket and the trade paperback
cover.
