I know my research has taken me an ocean away from you on a number of occasions, but you’ve selflessly allowed me follow and realize my dreams. I’m not sure I will ever be able to accurately convey my gratitude. Further, you’ve always believed in me without hesitation. This has made it much easier to believe in myself. Secondly, I owe my life-changing research experience at Bucknell to Professor of History, David W. Del Testa, my mentor and, now, after these many years, my dear friend.
