Walter Herbert, Robert N. Hudspeth, Robert K. Martin, Joel Myerson, Alice Perry, Joel Pfister, Larry Reynolds, Carroll Smith-Rosenberg, Jeffrey Steele, Patricia Valenti, and Christina Zwarg. It is a great pleasure to thank old friends who contributed in a variety of ways to the work on this edition: Ann Congleton, Judith Friedlander, Frank Hutchins, Nancy Porter, Daniel Kaiser, and Louise Yelin. The Purchase Library staff, especially Sue Garrett, assisted me in tracking down rare texts. Maggie Stier of the Fruitlands Museums, and the staffs of the Houghton Library, the Boston Public Library, the Massachusetts Historical Society, the St. Lawrence University Library, and the New York Public Library offered essential assistance. Thanks are due Grazyna Drabik and my students Diane Silverstein and Josephine Porpora for taking pains with textual revisions. The Purchase College Foundation helped to support my research and Cummington Community of the Arts offered stimulating shelter during some of the writing. I am grateful to John Weingartner, Ann Twombly, and Emily McKeigue at Northeastern University Press for their enthusiastic and energetic support for this project.
