Acknowledgements
Like all authors, I have accumulated a number of debts over the years. Although formal acknowledgments cannot begin to satisfy those debts, they nonetheless permit me to offer heartfelt thanks. My greatest debt is to my parents, whose love and support have nourished me all my life. My sisters and brothers have remained constant sources of love and encouragement, even when they wondered just what it was I was doing.
I owe enormous intellectual debts to my teachers. At Rutgers University, many years ago, Thomas Forstenzer helped me understand why and how we study those with whom we disagree. At Binghamton University, Charles Freedeman, Charles Forcey, Bernard Mason, W. Warren Wagar, and Thomas Dublin forced me to sharpen my thinking and refine my analytical framework. Professor Forcey deserves special thanks for his valiant efforts to make me clarify both my ideas and my expression of them. I also learned much from my fellow graduate students, who made Binghamton in the 1980s a wonderful place to study history.
The Mississippi Department of Archives and History provided a most congenial environment for research. I am most grateful to the friendly and professional staff, especially Hank Holmes and Mickey Hennen, Jr., for their invaluable assistance. Michelle Hudson and Charlie Brenner of the Eudora Welty Library of the Jackson-Hinds Public Library System deserve special thanks for making my time in Jackson, Port Gibson, and Natchez so enjoyable and rewarding. Binghamton University provided the financial support that I needed to conduct much of my research. Thanks also to the administration of Hamilton College for its generous junior faculty leave policy, which permitted me to devote the last year to the writing of this book. My colleagues, especially Robert L. Paquette, and students at Hamilton also deserve appreciation for the patience and support they have shown me over the past six years.
The professional and personable staff at Louisiana State University
