At the Arthur Lakes Library of the Colorado School of
Mines, Ms. Lisa Dunn, Head of Special Collections, gra-
ciously provided research help and access to the historical
archives containing much of Bond’s writing, which was sent
there by Bond’s son, Robert. The University of Wyoming’s
American Heritage Center had requested and received
from Fred Bond the bulk of his files as he wound down his
professional activities during the later years of his retire-
ment. Vicki Glantz and the other staff there are graciously
thanked for their valued assistance. And finally, Fred’s son,
Bruce, is acknowledged for the many correspondences to
help track down sought-after materials and for our personal
discussions about his father’s life during our meetings and
communications.
