Reviews

“Anna Jameson was a woman of character and a writer of distinction whose critical works won a wide, loyal, and even discriminating audience on two continents and helped to shape the taste of the age…Clara Thomas’s Love and Work Enough is a definitive study and a model of its kind….Professor Thomas restores Mrs. Jameson’s works to their central position in her life, and in so doing reanimates our interest in Anna Jameson as a person and redirects us to the books she wrote to please, to instruct, and to make money.”
