Life & Work by David P. Silcox<br />
Acknowledgements<br />
From the Author<br />
For his insights and contribution to my earlier work on <strong>Tom</strong> <strong>Thomson</strong>, thanks are due to Harold Town; to Joan Murray, who, in 1971,<br />
organized the first <strong>Thomson</strong> retrospective in thirty years; and to Iris Nowell, who carried out the basic research.<br />
The ACI team expertly guided me through the complexities of preparing this first online book on <strong>Tom</strong> <strong>Thomson</strong>—particularly Rosemary<br />
Shipton, éditrice extraordinaire; John Geoghegan, super art sleuth; and Sara Angel, our intrepid leader.<br />
