      Note/s:
      • Author's Preface: In this book of memories, I seek for a meaning which may connect events, and in this task approach what must be all men's task, for what are personal experiences worth unless they find relatedness to the psychic life of our time? ... Looking back upon my life, I have selected what seems most relevant; and not only events concern me, for sometimes I have let my thoughts gather and replace mere happenings. I seek for that connection which may link my exerience with the catastrophic phenomena of our time. Laity Water, Torrington, 1944.
