Acknowledgments
Many institutions have kindly contributed financial and scholarly support to my research for this book. Texas Tech University provided state-supported research grants in the summers of 1967, 1968, and 1974, when this project was in its earliest stages. The American Council of Learned Societies awarded me a fellowship for seven months of 1975. Library staffs were also very helpful. Particularly I am greatly indebted to the Texas Tech University Library, the Library of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, the Library of the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia, the Free Library of Philadelphia, the New York Public Library, the Library of the New-York Historical Society, and the libraries of the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton University, Rutgers University, and Rowan College. I also consulted material belonging to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library, Hyde Park, New York. The able criticism of numerous anonymous readers made this a much better book. The editorial staff of Louisiana State University Press helped make it presentable.
