Reviews


Proceed With Caution
I bought this book to assist in my studying for the English Lit GRE. It wasn't particularly useful given its lack of substance, but more importantly, I noticed multiple errors (incorrect plot summaries, wrong dates, etc.). Stick with Norton.

EZ as 1-2-3
I used this along with Norton Anthology American Literature to pass my CLEP exam. You certainly need more then this little book for studying, but it was great to help me focus on the authors that were covered in the test.

Just for reviewing
I am a grad student who bought this text to get some help with studying for a major exam. Even thought it was helpful with the "big picture", the book is lacking in the more specific details that a more seasoned scholar might need. I recommend this book for undergrads or someone who is looking to return to college, but not for more advanced scholarly research.

Great Handbook for home educators.
This make a great handbook or reference book for home educators. It is written with the authors in Historical/Literary Time periods in chronological order. Each key is an introduction to the author with examples of the author's works. I highly recommend it.
