Reviews
"At last, a volume of Hogg's works that reveals his remarkable national and international reach and influence. This carefully edited and comprehensively annotated collection of Hogg's contributions to periodicals in England, Ireland, and North America vividly demonstrates that the appeal of the Ettrick Shepherd outside of Scotland resulted from his unparalleled mastery of a range of dialects, genres and modes, and subject matter.-- ""Holly Faith Nelson, Trinity Western University"" This outstanding volume of Hogg works contains a sparkling and energetic array of poetry and prose. It will delight both scholars who wish to understand these compelling periodical pieces in a deep socio-historical context and lovers of literature who are looking for a sampler of the power of Hogg's writing.-- ""Sharon Alker, Whitman College"""

From 2014-17, she served as Research Assistant on the AHRC-funded project ""James Hogg: Contributions to International Periodicals.""
