Recensioner i media

“an exceedingly detailed chronology...a useful section on topics for teachers...given Ellen Foster’s popularity among high school literature teachers and the lack of any monographic critical studies of Gibbons, high school and undergraduate libraries should acquire this work. Recommended”—Choice; “very well researched and written”—ARBA; “excellent series of Literary Companions”—Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine.
