“This book has been produced during the fortieth anniversary of The Aliquando Press, at a time when the insanity of ‘the savage wars of peace’ continues, and when Garshin’s text has never been more relevant. Its creation is the result of collaboration with four dear friends: Stan Bevington, Dave Farey, Nancy Jacobi, and Henry Schogt.” — William Rueter, from the colophon.
