Acknowledgments
Although I am solely responsible for this book and its contents, it would never have come to be without the help and encouragement of a motley crowd of scholars, students, friends, and family, who have guided me through the planning, development, and actual realization of this volume. Among these people, my colleagues at the Roosevelt Study Center in Middelburg deserve a special mention, because they have constantly fed me with their knowledge, experience, and wisdom. I would like to thank David Woolner, Allida Black, and Lawrence Wittner for having nurtured both my interest in the story of the Roosevelts and my passion for peace history. I am very grateful to my Ph.D. supervisor, Mari
