Meecker, Choice, October 2004 All Dickensians should look forward to the emergence [of the three remaining volumes in the bibliography]: if the first volume is representative of the immense breadth, careful organisation, and incisive critical acumen that this author brings to bear on his subject, they will be well worth the wait. - Leon Litvack, The Dickensian, Summer 2004 An amazing piece of scholarship, extensively researched, attractively presented with an extensive index.
