First: Happy Father’s Day to all, and a special shout-out to my dad, a great role model and friend and old soul, the toughest-yet-tenderest person I know, who has taught me so much over the years about what love is, and hard work, and generosity of spirit, and fearlessness, and how to go through life with curiosity, affection, and heart. Love you, Dad - I’m still learning from you, every day.

My dad (George R. Saunders) and I, having a great day, years ago, at the archetype for “CivilWarLand,” the Genesee Country Museum, Rochester, NY.

Now, on to our discussion of “Enemies.”
