It could be a Green Giant or a Good Fellow. :) But the one Norman
referred to is Leonard Benjamin William Jolly who compiled a book on
"Summation of Series", on over 1,000 series and their sums for easy
reference, whose first edition appeared in 1925.

For those who don't work with summations of series on a daily basis,
I think it's a very valuable reference, so much so I just realized
that it was the only reference book on MATHEMATICS I kept, in addition
to the 5 books on statistics. :-)
