"Sometimes in moments of discouragement we may feel like a leaf floating on an ocean. Actually each of us is a figure woven into an intricate tapestry that extends forward and back through the eternities. We are not alone. This present work is meant to give Lee descendants a sense of this eternal pattern, an identity, perhaps even a feeling of understanding and closeness with their ancestors." - from the Introduction.
