Notes
According to John F. Carr's post on the War World Central Web site in December, 2010, "while going through some old boxes in the basement several months ago I discovered an unfinished story by Frank Gasperik, an old friend and co-author of Janesfort, who passed away on May 3, 2007. Frank Gasperik worked as one of Jerry's and my editorial assistants at Chaos Manor in the late 1980's and we got to be good friends. While Frank was best known as a songwriter and folksinger, he also appeared as a character in several science fiction novels including Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle's Lucifer's Hammer, as Mark Czescu, and in Footfall, as Harry Reddington.
Frank's unfinished War World story, To Win the Peace, was originally started in the early 1990's and was intended to be the sequel to Janesfort. Unfortunately, Frank's health problems got in the way of finishing it and the story remained forgotten for two decades until I ran across the incomplete first draft. I immediately contacted his long-time friend and collaborator, Leslie Fish, and she remembered the story well. I asked her if she would finish it as a tribute to Frank and she quickly agreed."
