ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This book would not have been possible without the support of many colleagues, friends, and institutions on both sides of the Atlantic. The extent and quality of this support prove that there really is a Whitman community on which individual Whitman researchers can and must depend.
Early assistance and encouragement came from Gay Wilson Allen, the father of modern Whitman research, and Hans Galinsky, one of the great researchers in German-American studies of our century. Throughout my many years of research, I drew on the expertise and friendship of Betsy Erkkila (Philadelphia), Ed Folsom (Iowa City), and Hans-Joachim Lang (Hamburg) for aid in collecting, assembling, and analyzing my material and for the critical evaluation of my manuscript. For effective help with the manuscript, I would also like to thank James E. Knowlton (Sherman, Texas), Anne Ulmer (Northfield, Minnesota), and especially my copy editor, Kathy Lewis.
