Reviews

Anyone doing research in the literature of England, Scotland, Ireland, or Wales from 1500 to 1700 should make sure that this falls open at the beginning of a project. Ms. Bowers and Ms. Keeran have surveyed research sources, starting with a commonsensical approach to online investigating as well as the standard library catalogues, print and electronic bibliographies, scholarly journals, web resources, and so much more. With wit, clarity, and style, they guide the reader, novice or pro, through the best print, microform, and web materials for the two centuries roughly covered by the terms renaissance and early modern. If you get this book, read it straight through, and then consult it often. If the forthcoming volume in this series on British Literature of the Long Eighteenth Century by the same authors comes even close to the quality of this volume, scholars in our field will be doubly well served.
