Reviews
"-This volume is different in that it draws almost entirely on literary sources--stories, poems, ballads, scripture, novels, plays, and essays--for the allusions that profile the cultural attitudes toward charity and philanthropy... Recommended for college, university, and professional libraries, and for those who live by the promotion of philanthropy.- --J. H.
