"Some books seem to mature like old wine. This little volume appears to belong to this category, judging from the letters I have had over the years since it was first published, and by the value of out-of-print copies on the shelves of the sellers of second-hand books." This second edition contains new material not seen in the first edition, including an account of Richard Walker's record capture of 1952.
