Reviews

provides a detailed and fascinating narrative ... insightful and meticulously researched ... The LastMinstrels: Yeats and the Revival of the Bardic Arts is essential to our understanding of modern literature and of W. B. Yeats. This is an impressive capstone work that only a scholar of Schuchard's stature, skills, and background in Yeats, Eliot, and modern literature could have written. Mary Helen Thuente, Modern Philology
