Acknowledgments
A debt of gratitude is owed to many who enabled me to complete
this book. I would first like to thank my friends and former colleagues at Florida International University, in particular Bruce Harvey who directed a very early version of this work when it was in its thesis phase. His continued support and encouragement since that time has been more than I could have hoped for. I would like to thank Mary Free for what can only be described as brilliant suggestions and astute editing on a very rough first draft of this study several years ago. Richard Sugg, who also read the early version, offered useful comments at the time and valuable advice since then. Special thanks are due to Tometro Hopkins for her support through many years. Thanks to Kathleen McCormack who collaborated with me on a presentation at the Hemingway International Conference in Key West in 2004. Special thanks to Kimberly Harrison and to Jean Muteba Rahier with whom I worked on
