The author wishes to thank Dr. Loretta Burns of the Department of History, Mankato State University and Dr. Harry Solo of the Department of English, Mankato State University for their interest and comments. A special thanks to Dr. Margaretta Handke for giving me the freedom to pursue a topic of my own choice. Her willingness to allow me to proceed in my own direction while remaining available to answer questions and concerns helped (forced?) me to develop my own ideas. Finally, special thanks to my wife, Linda, who has proofread every word several times and made valuable suggestions regarding grammar, sentence structure, format, and clarity.
