M 219 N ACKNOWLEDGMENTS N Interviews This book is based in part on my interviews, conversations, and correspondence with Michael Curry, Janice Frey, Sam Lovejoy, Susan Mareneck , Peter Natti, J. Carson Sloan, James Tapley, Harvey Wasserman, and numerous others in the farm’s extended family. I have also drawn on interviews and other material compiled by Nora Jacobson, Tim Koster, Blake Slonecker, and Karen Manners Smith. Research Sources The Famous Long Ago Archive, an umbrella collection that focuses on the extended family of Montague Farm and includes subcollections focused on Steve Diamond, Ray Mungo, MUSE, and other aspects of the farm family, is located in the Special Collections and University Archives, University of Massachusetts Amherst Libraries (www.library.umass.edu /spcoll/). The archive’s own websites are http://scua.wordpress.com and www.famouslongago.org/. The papers of Marshall Bloom are housed in Amherst College Archives and Special Collections. A number of other people and activities related to the extended farm family can be found 220 N ACKNOWLEDGMENTS through bibliographic research, as well as on the Web. Note that Beech River Books (www.beechriverbooks.com) is the publisher of a new edition of Steve Diamond’s What the Trees Said, the early history of Montague Farm. A new edition of Ray Mungo’s Famous Long Ago was published in 2012 by University of Massachusetts Press. Farm members generously provided material on the farm’s reunion in 1993. The voluminous farm family e-mails surrounding the farm’s final disposition, from 2000 to 2002, offered a rich source for information on this period. The Williams College Archives & Special Collections provided a copy of Harry Payne’s “Roll Over, Norman Rockwell: The Real 1950s.” Readers, Advisors Friends and colleagues who consulted on the story or the manuscript at some point include Daniel Aaron, Arlene Bouras, Simon Brennan, Rob Cox, Jennifer Fels, Sophie Fels, Jesse Kornbluth, Steve Lerner, John McMillian, Ray Mungo, Carl Oglesby, Blake Slonecker, and Bruce Wilcox.
