To two women, who dreamed and worked past what their bodies would easily allow them to do. Their examples gave me the inspiration to complete this work: Cathy Pyke, a determined fighter who came back from near death, and Jean Hutchinson (1910-1997), who wrote her history books, even while ill in bed, by tapping on an electric typewriter with two pencils to accommodate her arthritis.
