The work benefited tremendously from their input and the comments of the anonymous reviewers. John Hart and Allen Wells took time to read the entire manuscript and provided meaningful insights. Don Ramón's knowledge of Mexico and his own research served to guide and direct my efforts. Above all, I am beholden to Ramón Eduardo Ruiz and Natalia for their constant support and encouragement. In the process of researching and developing this work I incurred many debts. Intellectual activities are seldom individual ventures.
