This is your host John Hagadorn and today we have a collection of stories that mostly serve as footnotes to larger stories. Any good historian would tell you that the real gems are found in the footnotes that I concur.

It's sort of like finding the story behind the story, and the footnote often contains things

we just didn't know about before.

Before we begin, I'd like to thank all of you for your support this past year,

which has been a year of terrific growth for us here at all the 1001 stories network shows.

And that's all thanks to you. Between history and great classic literature, I'm convinced

we have the smartest fans in the world. We certainly have the best. I think you'll find today's

collection of stories very interesting.
