To my father, who communicated to me his own passions and ideals, and an abiding thirst for knowledge.

Prefatory quotes
A great waterfall I climbed. I stood on the shore of Balki the pool, which is the place of most awe in all worlds. The walls of it go up for ever and ever and huge and holy images are cut in them, the work of old times.
Out of the Silent Planet, C.S. Lewis
So that when Kings are dead and all their deeds forgotten the harpers of the future time shall awake from these golden chords those deeds of thine.
The Cave of Kai, Lord Dunsany
