Product Description
Review
[A] very good book and one that i greatly enjoyed reading. (The Mariner's Mirror )
Cindy McCreery has written a book that will be read with both pleasure and profit by historians of gender and of eighteenth-century English culture alike. (Simon Devereaux, The Australian Journal of Politics and History )
the most influential and enduring legacy of McCreery's project will be the wider utilisation of visual material in revising and shaping our most fundamental conceptions of the past. (Reviews in History )
... a very competent piece of work. (Apollo Magazine )

Underwhelmed and Disappointed.
19 April 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
For a book that purports to be about prints, it contains few of them, and even then they're poorly presented and quite small on the page. It didn't deliver on the promise of the title or the description of the book in any shape, way, or form in my opinion. For the price, I'd expected something along the lines of CITY OF LAUGHTER or VAUXHALL: A HISTORY. Something beautiful and filled with images. That is not what this is. It's a small book with a few black and white prints, all of which I'd already seen elsewhere. For $30, I'd have kept it. For $130, I sent it back.
