There are many stories to tell of pioneers and the legacy they have left us. Those you will find in this book have been a labour of love to collect, enjoy, write, edit and record. There remain many more stories and histories that still need to be retold and are worthy of being recorded. I hope others will find the time to discover them, preserve them and have the pleasure of seeing them in print to share and remember - RC.
