Recensioner i media

'A milestone in helping to resuscitate ... the attitudes which defined victim, oppressor and abolitionist. Their importance cannot be exaggerated.' Daily Telegraph 'This impressively produced eight-volume set is a useful set of documents, especially for those far removed from large libraries that possess the originals. Students of literature and history will find much important and rare material here.' Times Higher Education Supplement
