'King's Political Biography is surely a field-changer, and generously gives to its readers a revitalised interest in the future direction of Haywood studies.' BARS Bulletin ' illuminating and well-documented study.' Eighteenth-Century Fiction '[The book] reflects on every page its author's superb intelligence and exhaustive research; conveys the life of its remarkable subject in an accessible, coherent, and graceful prose; and offers literary scholars a compelling and intellectually-satisfying way to "tell the story of a woman's life."' The Journal for Early Modern Cultural Studies 'while the scope of King's biography is impressive, even more so is the depth with which it interrogates scholarly assumptions about key works by Haywood and significant details of her life. The result of King's unflagging excavation is a set of discoveries that have important implications not only for Haywood scholarship but also for the history of eighteenth-century British politics.' ABO: Interactive Journal for Women in the Arts, 1640-1830 'a superb book of deep scholarship and vibrant critical imagination.' The Review of English Studies
