Thank-you
Ed Alexander

This Internet edition of Boston: The Canadian Story has been made possible by the support of Ed Alexander of Hamilton. The original version of the book, published in 1984, has been out of print for years. Ed suggested that the original typewritten manuscript be reproduced and posted on net, where anyone with an interest in the Boston Marathon could find it. At his own expense, he had this done. Many thanks, Ed. Your generosity is much appreciated.
