'Not only is each of the [chapter] authors authoritative and sensible, they have also been organized and edited to an overall consistency that makes browsing an agreeable pastime.'
Clinton K. Krauss:
'No serious cultural historian or student of the period should fail to consult before descending to the basement of a library and pulling down one of those dusty volumes.'
