The photo seems so fitting to the book's described content as he looks so searching and serious. Seeing Leonard's history and work addressed so substantively means so much now and will come to mean more for those yet to discover him. It's being proven over and over again that Leonard will stand the test of time.

As always, thanks for these Jarkko and Dominique.
