330 _aEverything about George Burton was ten feet tall. His adventures, his disasters, his good points and his bad ones, all seemed larger than life. He had great personal magnetism, and those of us who worked closely with him sometimes asked ourselves if we were not just under his spell, when we thought of him as a great man. I can only say that, writing over two years after his death, he has no rival in my mind for the most unforgettable character I ever met.
