Guide

Many people helped me, intellectually and emotionally, to write this book, I owe the deepest debt of gratitude to Professor Ian Gentles who supervised the work at its doctoral dissertation stage and gave me his time, counsel, and support with endless generosity. I am also appreciative to all those who read and commented upon earlier versions of the book, most especially Dr. Nicholas Rogers, Dr. Jeanette Neeson, Dr. Jane Couchman, Dr. David McNally, Dr. Bettina Bradbury, and Dr. James Ward. I am especially grateful to Dr. Caroline Hibbard for her invaluable help and guidance. I have benefited as much from her criticisms as from her compliments. Of course, what errors and weaknesses remain in the book are my own responsibility.

I would like to acknowledge the invaluable help of the librarians and archivists at the following institutions: the Queen Elizabeth II Library in St. John's, Newfoundland; Scott Library and Robarts Library, in Toronto, Ontario; Lupton Library and John C. Hodges Library, in Tennessee; London University Library; the Institute of Historical Research; the Public Record Office; the Guildhall Library; the House of Lords Record Office; the Bodleian Library; and, most especially, the British Library.

I acknowledge with gratitude the fellowships and grants which have over the years helped cover research expenses. The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga awarded me a Faculty Research Grant for the summer of 2003 and, in 2005, appointed me to the rank of UC Foundation Assistant Professor; York University awarded me several teaching and research assistantships as well as a number of research and fieldwork bursaries; and Memorial University of Newfoundland awarded me the highly coveted J.W. Pickersgill Memorial Fellowship which financially sustained me for three years.

I most gratefully acknowledge too the aid and assistance of my colleagues at the History Department at UTC. At Ashgate, Tom Gray supported this book from the very beginning and graciously supplied the photograph of the Banqueting House. Three friendships have been particularly rich sources of sustenance. I thank Maria McCann, Kelly Lewis, and Stephen Moore for their constant encouragement and reassurance. I have been blessed to have been befriended by some extra-special people during my regular visits to England; to them I owe a debt of gratitude. I thank Wayne Chilcott, Idalina Ziger, and Kate Grayham for their much needed company, heartening conversations, and always welcome e-mails. To my oldest and dearest friend, Marie Linehan, thank you for reading the manuscript in its entirety and making excellent suggestions for improvement.

I owe much to my mother and father, Mary and Peter White, and my sister, Beverly Griffiths, for a lifetime of support and love.

Lastly, I wish to thank my husband, Wendell J. Wolfenbarger O'Reilly, who has lived with Henrietta Maria as long as he has lived with me. Without his constant encouragement and unfailing support, this book would never have been completed.
