Acknowledgments
There are thirteen people without whom I could not have produced this book. They were enormously helpful and I want them all to know how much I appreciate their contributions.
First, I'd like to thank Judy, my wife, friend and the best partner anyone could be lucky enough to have, for her rock-solid faith, encouragement and support.
Pam Leigh helped most with her unfailing good humor and an incredible ability to make each and every word say exactly what I needed it to convey.
Ron and Caryl Krannich, my publishers, made this project an absolute joy. They have become very important to me and I look forward to working with them for many years to come.
Martha Vaughan's illustrations and Linda and Harriet Ripinsky's production work are the best I have ever seen. They were unfailingly professional and forgiving, even when my requests were beyond the realm of possibility. I consider them to be the best in the business.
For their thoughts, ideas and genuine concern, my heart-felt thanks to Pauline Barney and David Clubb.
They worked under impossible deadlines and yet never failed to offer their advice and wisdom, which I gratefully accepted.
David Pensky and Britches of Georgetowne became enthusiastic supporters from the moment they became involved, and that meant a lot to me. Photographs of Britches' clothing are found throughout.
Joey Pietrafesa and Ellison Crain of the Joseph J. Pietrafesa Company, two very classy people, in the truest sense of the words, helped to make this book a reality. Much of the clothing photographed came from them including the beautiful vicuna cashmere blazer on the cover.
Red Socks Don't Work evolved from hundreds of mentors and literally thousands of "Gentlemen" over a period of more than ten years. My sincere thanks to all of them for allowing me to learn from them and to bring these messages to others.
