ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Anyone who attempts to compile a thorough bibliography in an
institution with modest library resources will understand the crucial
importance of inter-library loan. In this sense, my greatest profes
sional debt is to Mrs. Evelyn Oltmanns, director of inter-library loan
services at Teik.yo Westrnar University. Her patience with me and my
project over the last three years, her dedication and ingenuity in
tracking down requests for obscure materials have been amazing,
easing my task innumerable times.
I certainly could not have fmished in time without a good semi
nary library fairly nearby. The staff at the library of North American
Baptist Seminary in, Sioux Falls has been unfailingly helpful and
friendly to a stranger in their midst Other seminary or university li
braries where I have received much assistance on research visits in
clude, in the Chicago area, Garrett-Evangelical, Seabury-Western,
Northwestern University, the Joseph L. Regenstein Library at the
University of Chicago, Spertus College ofjudaica, and Loyola Uni
versity; in Wisconsin, the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Mar
quette University; in Iowa, Wartburg Theological Seminary, and the
University of Dubuque; in South Dakota, the University of South
Dakota-Vermillion; and in Nebraska, the University of Nebraska
Lincoln.
Because most of the work on this book was done without the aid
of research or travel money, I owe a large debt to those persons who
provided hospitality and in some cases transportation: Drs. Dwight
and Linda Vogel; Rev. Lisa Luethye; Dr. Gary and Ann Brienza; my
mother-in-law and late father-in-law, Marvel and Warren Carncross;
Leslie Sims; Elaine Hanks; and the Student Services staff at Sioux
Falls College. After financial assistance became available from my
institution during the last six months of work on this book, my Aca
demic Dean, Dr. Leon Scott, and the directors of the academic divi-
xii Acknuwledgments
sions at Teikyo Westmar approved my request for funds; I would like
to thank them for this and for other, more informal but equally
meaningful forms of encouragement. I am grateful to the Board of
Trustees at Teikyo Westmar for approving my sabbatical leave re
quest for Fall, 1991, so that I could key the book into the computer
in time to meet my publisher's deadline. Dr. Gregory Clapper, a
former colleague, and Dr. Colin Holman, a current one, gave much
advice about word processing, and the latter also helped with
printing. Michael Kistner supplied photocopies of material not oth
erwise available to me.
Several colleagues from around the country sent material which
I might otherwise have missed: Roland Bartel, Robert M. Fowler,
Ann Hughes, Beret Lang, Gila Ramras-Rauch, and Guy Stern. While
I was not able to use everything they provided, their assistance in
identifYing sources was invaluable. My students Bret Denekas and
Joseph Melnichak were of great help during a January Term course
in getting the raw materials organized and indexed. Any errors in
numbering which may have occurred are, however, entirely my do
ing, made after Bret and Joe had finished their part of the effort.
They also wrote a few of the entries, for which credit is given in the
appropriate places below.
Families of scholars engaged in extensive projects often bear a
difficult burden: time spent away from them which in normal cir
cumstances would have been devoted to family. For all her support
over the years, in so many ways which cannot be mentioned here,
my greatest debt is to my wife, Joyce. The dedication page of this
book records both intellectual and personal sources of gratitude.
