Media Reviews

'Clark has done a masterful job of resurrecting a work that further illuminates the world of women's fiction in the early nineteenth century.' Eighteenth-Century Intelligencer 'an impeccable edition for scholars which will certainly draw the attention of those concerned with women's literature and its evolution during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.' Journal of the Spanish Association of Anglo-American Studies
