References

1. The picture of Grenville Clark's father, on the other hand, is of a man in an expensive but somewhat sloppy suit with his hands in his pockets and an affable smile. In one of the several omissions in the book we learn very little about this man or about Grenville's mother. Instead, Professor Dunne focuses primarily on Grenville Clark's maternal grandfather in describing Clark's early years.

2. Clark's Harvard friends coined the nickname for him because he was always willing to debate the issues of the day.
