On behalf of the XI Commonwealth Games Foundation (1978), I am delighted to recognize the superb efforts of the Foundation’s Education Committee in the production of an anthology of Commonwealth literature. It is the hope of all those involved in the Games that this collection of literary publications will make a substantial contribution to a better understanding of the various cultures throughout the Commonwealth and lead to a greater appreciation of the creative talents around the world. Dr. Maury Van Vliet President, XI Commonwealth Games
