What is Intimacy and Family in Early American Writing about?
This section is by far my favorite part of the book to write, because I am able to thank the many people who have helped bring this book to life. Multiple communities of friends and colleagues supported me before and during this project. Beth Bailey, Jennie Kasanoff, and Chris Baswell provided my earliest models of what scholarly life could look like. James Basker, Larzer Ziff, and Ron Paulson each helped, in his own way, to make the eighteenth century an inviting intellectual home long before I took up residence there. Michael Moon read several early versions of most of the chapters and gave invaluable criticism. Sharon Cameron, Frances Ferguson, and Walter Michaels made me a better thinker and a better writer. My family-Lew, Rinda, Jen, and Lewis-gave me emotional and at times financial, nutritional, and transportational support throughout my years at Johns Hopkins. I thank them for their love and their willingness to listen to me tell long and pointless stories about people they don't know from centuries long past. Many thanks as well to the family members I acquired during those years:
