ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Many thanks to Lavinia Wellecombe, curator of Woburn Abbey, for showing me about parts of the Abbey not normally open to the public; to Janine Barton, for being such an amusing and informative companion as she drove me about so much of Llangarlia; and to Polly and Robert Arnold, for providing a comfortable place to stay so near to where Caela hid one of the kingship bands.
