INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA Ron Juliette and DaleE.Landon THE DONNINGCOMPANY = PUBLISHERS DEDICATION by Ron Juliette I lovingly dedicate this book to my mother, Anne Dorazio Juliette, who taught me to love books; to my father, Joseph, who taught me to set my sights high; and to my wife, Joan, and my children, Tony and Kate, without whose support and encouragement this book would not have been possible. DEDICATION by Dale E. Landon This book is dedicated, with love, to those who made this effort possible: my wife, Evelyn, and my sons, Kent W. and Dain C, who have given me their time and love which enabled me to follow an obsession; and my mother, LaReda J. Miller Landon, and my father, Louis, whose efforts allowed a first-generation college student to follow his dream.
