Recensioner i media

'exquisitely produced and impeccably edited collection offers a wealth of fresh material to scholars of Romanticism' The Wordsworth Circle 'does not pretend to be anything that it is not, and it delivers what it promises. Its extracts evoke the rawness of discovery in an age when vast portions of the atlas were blank and when large portions of the world's population lived in ignorance of each other.' Times Literary Supplement
