AUTHORS' NOTES ON ADAMS-BENTLEY COMITIA AMERICANA

Regarding last week's review of 'Comitia Americana', coauthor John
W. Adams writes: "At the end of the day, I am proudest of 1) catching
Jefferson in flagrante, thereby solving a longstanding mystery; 2)
introducing the quality of stochastic screening to numismatic
publications and 3) legitimatizing the presence of copies in a
serious collection. There are many who would dispute this, but,
in the case of the Comitia Americanas, there is no alternative."

Coauthor Anne Bentley writes: "Many thanks for the kind words and
gentle corrections. No book is ever perfect or finished--especially
not a history tome.  I know that I, for one, look forward to any
new information that comes to light: we know that there is more out
there somewhere, and hope that our research provides a sound base
for those to follow."
