Acknowledgment

Acknowledgments WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE the long-suffering and eternally patient Bucky Hughes and Frances Bender Rushing. Without their constant support and encouragement, our efforts would have been handicapped. Others we wish to thank are the Virginia Historical Society archivists who made time for our work during their busy days; the helpful assistants at the Museum of the Confederacy in Richmond; Mary Helms, Chattanooga– Hamilton County Bicentennial Library; Dr. Waddie W. Moore, Conway, Arkansas; Jim Ogden, Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park, Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia; Marylin Hughes, Tennessee State Library and Archives, Nashville; Fred Bauman, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.; and Kelsey P. Hughes, Webster University, St. Louis, Missouri. Scot Danforth, director of the University of Tennessee Press, deserves special mention. As our encourager and adviser, Scot more than once saved us from the shallows. ...
