Reviews & endorsements
"All libraries serving serious students of litertaure should have these volumes." Q. Grigg, Choice
See more reviews"...[Henry James: The Contemporary Reviews] is more generally useful than its predecessors....[Hayes] improves upon them by printing the full texts of reviews (`overlong quotations' have been `abbreviated'), appending checklists of additional reviews for each book, and, in general, offering the `most thorough gathering' of newspaper and magazine reviews of James's fiction `ever assembled.'" Rayburn S. Moore, Resources for American Literary Study
