This collection would not have been possible without the support of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) and the Canada Research Chair (CRC) in War Studies at the Royal Military College of Canada (RMC), for which we are grateful. SSHRC and CRC funding allowed us to exchange ideas in person and really workshop the book when we went over each others drafts. We are also are grateful for the assistance of several people at RMC, including Suzanne Robertson, who made all the administrative arrangements, Jaya Surapaneni, who finalized all the travel claims, and Kevin Brushett, chair of the Department of History, who helped us knock down so many administrative obstacles.
For the collection itself, we wish to thank our contributors for their chapters and their patience with us as editors. At Cornell University Press, Emily Andrew and Alexis Siemon were wonderfulmeticulous, patient, encouraging, and kind. We also owe thanks to the anonymous reviewers, whose insightful comments helped improve the final product, and to Caroline Vary-ONeal, who formatted the manuscript.
