MY DEAR ROBERT, Permit me to dedicate this book, or so mucli of it as ismine, to you. It is a practice not unusual for a dedicator to assure adedicatee that he—perhaps more frequently she—is the fountain andorigin of the work dedicated, the head and front of the offence. Thispractice I can to some extent, and with a good conscience, follow; forI hold it certain that but for your friendly and professional advice Ishould long since have ended, if not on the gallows, at least in a unionworkhouse, a not vastly promising career. In the latter of these pre-dicaments the writing of a book about the Cinque Ports would have beendifficult; in the former, impossible. Hence your vicarious responsibility.
