Four Freedoms
Page 51
Bret A. Carter was generous with his collection of Ponca City and Kaw
County photographs. I hope that they, and the reader as well, will
understand that this book of mine is a Ponca City (and indeed a Home
Front and a War) of the Mind, and that all digressions from the ascer-
tainable facts, whether intentional or not, are entirely my own.
Many of the learned and curious correspondents, if that’s the word,
who read and comment on my online journal went in search of answers
to questions I posed there, like the source of the phrase “Git for home,
Bruno!” and the price of condoms in 1944 (about $1.50 for a tin of
three; they found pictures, too). To LSB I owe the knowledge and
understanding I have of what became of people with disabilities at that
time, and before and after, which is at the heart of this fiction.
