I suspect that he is the one who wrote those "rapt italic / inscriptions" on the fly leaves of those books, as courtship gifts.
Actually, for the inscriptions to include the wife's former surname, she probably wrote it in those books herself, before lending them out. Anyhoo.

Glad you enjoyed this, Janice and Maryann.

The first time Gil met my parents and sisters, he was ominously quiet in the car on the way back. Finally he said, "Don't take this the wrong way...but if you didn't look just like those people, I'd swear you were adopted. You are nothing like them." And that was the moment I knew I would marry this man.
