"We dedicate this book to all the Croatian sailors, pioneers and immigrants who have been coming to America since the time of Columbus. We also pay tribute to all Croatian and their descendants who sacrificed their lives, blood, and energy to build a better America for future generations. They have contributed to America's prosperity and democratic process. Recently, they helped bring about the liberation of their mother country, Croatia." (Dedication)
