Reviews

Chapman's extensive original research thus continues the decades-long efforts of scholars to bring more unknown or undervalues Victorian women's writing into the light of critical inquiry ... Chapman's [book] refines, deepens, complicates ... Networking the Nation joins the other books in carrying on the important task begun by the pioneering feminist researchers of the late twentieth century - even as their scope and diversity hint at how much we still have to learn. * Rohan Maitzen, Times Literary Supplement *
