I should like to thank numerous friends for their help and encouragement, especially those who read and commented on drafts of papers and those who accompanied me on expeditions in the field.

I should like especially to thank Roger Holmes for accompanying me and taking photographs when I visited all the posts in 1972. I should like also to express my gratitude to the Corporation of the City of London for contributing to my expenses on that occasion.

I should like to thank correspondents over the years, especially the late Maurice Bawtree, who have corrected errors and supplied information on changes.
