Media Reviews
'CBEL3 is generously wide-ranging ... Users of CBEL3 will find different uses for it. I particularly value the opening sections on 'Book Production and Distribution'. But any number of research projects might take off from a browsing of its pages. Strange to say, this is a book which it is pleasurable to browse in ... the calculus of pounds sterling for hours of scholarly work, CBEL3 must represent the best bargain going.' The Times Literary Supplement
'The standard bibliography of our national literature ... some of the entries are fine, comprehensive and comprehensible, and will serve as an excellent reference in the absence of a full author bibliography.' Jim McCue, The Times
Going by sheer power to shape the study of English literature, the single most important volume this year is the third edition of volume four (1800-1900) of the indispensable Bibiliography of English Literature, edited by Joanne Shattock. Studies in English Liteatrue
