Epigraph

I can do one of two things. I can be President of the United States or I can control Alice. I can't possibly do both.
- Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States, on his oldest daughter

Dedication

First words

Washington, D.C., 1917

Pride reincarnated in the flesh stood at my door with a self-satisfied face that offered all the appeal of a mustachioed head of cabbage.

Quotations

"I think the whole scheme is outrageous!"
"Fabulous! That means it's worthwhile."

I do so hate coming up with an elaborate lie and then finding out my creative falsehood is only too true.
