I am hugely grateful also to the following, who have read chunks of the manuscript, offered good advice, or simply been there during my peripa-tetic existence of the past few years: Pertti Ahonen; Richard Aldrich; Mike Braddick; Richard Carwardine; Flurin Condrau; Penny Croxson; Richard Cummings; Ken Curtis; Kathleen DiVito; George Fujii; Andrea, Martha, and Daniel Greengrass; Patrick Gribble; Karen Harvey; Tim Keirn; Ian Kershaw; Helen Laville; Dan Leab; Scott Lucas; Richard Maltby; John Munro; Karen Paget; Inderjeet Parmar; John Sbardellati; Barbara Schmucki; Lise Sedrez; Tony Shaw; Sean Smith; Joe Street; Howard Tolley; Brian Vick; Michael Warner; and Cath, David, Gilly, and Peter Wilford. My students, both at my previous institution, the University of Sheffield, and my new one, California State University, Long Beach, have in turn indulged and stimulated my interest in the hidden history of the Cold War.

Among the institutions that supported me while I researched and wrote, the British Academy provided several small grants that enabled me to visit archival collections in the United States; the University of Sheffield granted me a semester’s research leave and additional assistance with travel costs; the Arts and Humanities Research Council matched my institutional leave so that I could spend a whole year researching in the United States; the Cold War Studies Center at the University of California, Santa Barbara, under the directorship of Tsuyoshi Hasegawa, extended me a wonderfully warm welcome as a visiting scholar and proved an outstandingly congenial research environment; and California State University, Long Beach, has been generous in giving me the time and space during my first year of appointment to lick the manuscript into shape. Administrative staff in the Sheffield, Santa Barbara, and Long Beach History Departments have provided invaluable practical support and unfailing good cheer. I am also grateful to the librarians of these three institutions for their assistance in tracking down a vast and strange assortment of publications, as well as to the uniformly courteous and efficient archivists who have aided me as I trawled manuscript collections throughout the United States.

My literary agents, Felicity Bryan and George Lucas, deserve special thanks for their faith in this project and support in bringing it to fruition.

Assisted with great efficiency by Kathleen Drummy, Kathleen McDermott of Harvard University Press has been a model editor, and Donna Bouvier an exemplary copyeditor.

Finally, my heartfelt gratitude to two women: my mother, Jan Wilford, who has always been a vital source of solace for me, but never more so than in the past few years; and Patricia Cleary, who, in addition to being my most dedicated and expeditious reader, has brought untold happiness into my life.
