Reviews
The most important work of American literary criticism in nearly 30 years Beautifully written, it gives us our clearest picture yet of the literary climate between the Revolutionary and Civil Wars., Provocative and rigorously argued...It makes a strong case for the odd and ambiguous relationship of popular culture to the major works of nineteenth-century American literature., Impressively informed and heroic...An original piece of work that gives the literary canon and its contexts a good shaking.
