I am greatly indebted to several members of the faculty of that institution. First of all, I owe particular thanks to John Lewis Gaddis. As dissertation adviser, he supervised my research and writing. A disciplined scholar, incisive critic, and keen analyst, he provided me with immeasurable guidance and insight. As participants on my dissertation committee, Alonzo L. Hamby, Donald A. Jordan, and Stephen M. Miner suggested ways to improve the style and content of my work. To them, I am grateful. I also wish to thank Charles C. Alexander, Robert H. Whealey, and Lyle A. McGeoch of Ohio University for their encouragement and assistance during my study there. My fellow graduate students, Mark Benbow, Derrick Smith, and Philip Nash, also helped me in various ways. In revising my dissertation for publication, I benefited from the advice of many friends. Drawing on his own familiarity with the subject, William Stueck of the University of Georgia made many helpful suggestions for revisions. Michael H. Hunt of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill read a portion of my manuscript and provided a thoughtful critique that reflected his vast knowledge of the subject. Chen Jian and Wang Xi have my appreciation for sharing Chinese material with me. The Auburn University at Montgomery History Department has provided me with the most excellent intellectual and personal company that a historian could ask for. I wish to record my gratitude to Mr. and Mrs. David Wallbridge for their hospitality during my stay in London while researching in the Public Record Office. The staffs of libraries and archives which I visited in the course of my research were extremely helpful in furthering my work. For financial assistance that supported my
