The author develops methods of computing the normalizing constants for an extreme to have a limiting distribution. One particular method is based on tail equivalence. See also \textit{J. Villasenor} [Bull. Int. Stat. Inst. Contrib. Papers, 43rd Session, Buenos Aires (1981)] and pp. 64-65 and p. 158 in the reviewer's book ''The asymptotic theory of extreme order statistics.'' 2nd ed.
