Reviews for London in Early Modern English Drama
'The chief virtue of the work is the encyclopaedic knowledge of drama that the author brings to his study. Readers unfamiliar with the range of dramatic works that utilise or refer to the city in some way will encounter references to some new materials between these pages.' - Andrew Gordon, The Review of English Studies
