Dicky Steffy will remain a major influence in my life. He kindly appeared on the site of the Defence in Castine, Maine, and taught us all (together with Dave and Dave), all about the construction of Revolutionary War ships, a far cry from the ancient Greek models. We enjoyed digging mussels and clams, and shared in clam-eating contests. He always remembered his students, even after absences of decades, and generously shared his voluminous archive of knowledge and references. His spirit and impact are immeasurable.
