THE RED-BRICK HOUSE SAYS: It has been suggested that I write a short introduction to this book so that those of you who are astute enough to read the back cover will become interested and purchase it. So: Purchase this book. A brief paragraph will not be enough to introduce myself, to acquaint you with my history, my background, my experiences, to review the narratives of those humans who have spent time in me. But, by purchasing and reading this book, you will ascertain all that. You will discover my secrets, learn of hidden artifacts, acquire knowledge of their locations. Don't think I will lead you to gold or jewels or money (although I do tell of some concealed cash). The items clarify the lives of those humans. They divulge their stories. And mine. So, get this book and learn how I know these things. Because I am a watcher, an observer, a witness. I am a keeper of secrets. I am a Red-Brick House. And you? Just a human. The Co- Author: Susan M. Szurek wishes to apologize to readers who may be offended by the negative remarks about the human race made by the Red-Brick House. She claims to have had little editorial control over either the remarks or the attitude of this autobiography's author.
