I am indebted to staffs at several libraries. In the course of my research I paid extensive visits to the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, the Archives and Manuscript Department at the Auburn University Library, Hill Memorial Library at Louisiana State University, the Center for American History at the University of Texas at Austin, and the South Caroliniana Library in Columbia. Librarians and archivists at each location proved helpful and friendly, and I greatly appreciate their patience and assistance. The inter-library loan staff at the Troy H. Middleton Library of Louisiana State University also rendered important service by quickly processing my many requests for documents and microfilm.
Several other individuals deserve mention as well. Susan Knisely, an excellent librarian, assisted me with computer database research. Rolene and Tommy Wall deserve thanks for their support and friendship during the preparation of this document. Dr. Henry Robertson of Louisiana State University assisted with the title. Dr. Melissa Wiedenfeld provided me with research opportunities that taught me a great deal about the practice of history. Thanks also to the editors and staff at the University of North Texas Press for their generous assistance with this work.
