...comprehensive and exceptionally well-researched analysis... What Giles Waterfield's book does, quietly and non-polemically, is to rescue the zeal and enthusiasm of those who opened great civic art museums from the condescension of art history. - Charles Saumarez Smith, Literary Review -- Charles Saumarez Smith Literary Review ...a sophisticated work of scholarship that tells a detailed and fascinating story. As instructive and entertaining as the Victorian museums with which it is concerned, it will be an invaluable resource for many years to come. -Susan Owens, TLS -- Susan Owens TLS
