The research and writing of a book can be a long, lonely, and expensive endeavor, so I am grateful to the many institutions and individuals that provided me with assistance. The president and provost of William Paterson University granted me a sabbatical leave in 20078, during which I began the project. Subsequent travel grants and release time from teaching enabled me to complete the book. My research assistant, William Peniston, helped in ways too numerous to detail.
I owe an enormous debt to many librarians and archivists, especially those at the New York Historical Society; the New York Public Library, Research Division; and the Boston Public Library. I am also grateful for assistance from Janet Linde at the New York Stock Exchange Archives; Kristin Aguilera at the Museum of American Finance, New York; Shaun Kirkpatrick at the ACE Insurance Archives, Philadelphia; Paul Israel at the Thomas Edison Papers, Rutgers University; Amanda E. Strauss at the Schlesinger Library, Harvard University; and Gail Malmgreen of the Newark Archives Project.
I could never have completed this book without the enormous generosity of my colleagues and friends. Janette Rutterford, Timothy Alborn, David Koistinin, Bonnie Anderson, and Elaine Schwartz discussed different aspects of my research with me, providing valuable suggestions and leads. Amy Froide, Antoinette Burton, Patricia Cleary, and Lucia McMahon read and commented on certain chapters. The book has especially benefited from the astute suggestions of Nancy Henry and Ginger Frost, who kindly read the entire manuscript.
I would additionally like to thank the anonymous readers for the University of Illinois Press for providing intelligent, insightful, and constructive suggestions. The final book has certainly benefited from their advice. I must also thank my copyeditor, Angela Arcese, for her fine work and meticulous attention to the smallest details. Lastly, I am indebted to my editor at the press, Dawn Durante, for carefully shepherding the book through review and production. She made what is often a tedious and painful process a pleasure.
