a valuable, important book...painstaking and lucid 'I would certainly want to use it as a textbook.' 'I wolfed it down in one rapid reading, which will be followed by numerous intensive close re-readings. It is bound to be immensely helpful...' 'I am grateful for the authoritative information about manuscript evidence.' ' ...what prompted this letter, aside from the surge of admiration your book produced in me...' ' ...a valuable, important book--so painstaking and lucid about issues fundamental to critical evaluation of these poets.''
