 Dedication
To my parents, to my family, to my students,
and to my teachers, especially my geography graduate
mentor, Kirk H. Stone, 1914-1997.
To the taxpayers of
California
and the
United States
. While most of them will never read this book,
they have supported the activities that have given me the knowledge and
experience
to write my contributions to this book.
-- Stan Trimble
 In Appreciation
The Blair School of Music at Vanderbilt University, which
has been so important to Stan's daughters, Alicia and Jennie,
and, in a broader sense, important to the cultural life of
middle Tennessee. A portion of Stan's royalties will be donated
to Blair.
To my parents, Alan and Beryl, for their love, wisdom, understanding,
high moral standards, compassion for humanity, and ability to make the
best of any situation. To my children, Samantha and Trevor, and my wife,
Clover, for their love, support, tolerance, understanding, and sacrifices
they made during the many hours, weeks, and months I spent working on
this book.
