A beautiful tribute to a pioneering historical demographer and also to the value of historical myth-busting. Thank you for giving so eloquent a tribute for those of us who did not know him.
My first significant academic publication was only possible due to Hans' data and input. This essay contributed to furnish even further my memory of him. Thanks for writing it, Johan!

Hans, unstinting in his kindness and willingness to share information. A true gentleman and fearless researcher. This article does him proud.
