Excerpt from The Laurentians the Hills of the Habitant Dear Wharton and Lisl: Years ago when you took me in, infant of letters that I was, clothed me with confidence, fed me with judicious praise, and held the cup of kindly criticism to my lips, you gave me the sinews for that most importunate pursuit which cries to every man, the finding of himself. You welcomed me as fellow-traveler along the joyous, difficult road of our choice, and sustained me with your comradship, ever loyal and comprehending. What disappointments we have faced, what satisfactions shared, we know and have privately recorded. But what may lie ahead we cannot know. And so I write these words of dedication to you both, as an inscription of friendship on the future, and as a symbol of that other unwritten dedication we have made, to our art, and to each other.
