Reviews

"It is not unusual for a seasoned critic to put together essays previously published over a period of time (in this case two decades). What is unique is the consistent voice and purpose sustained by Martz here and over a distinguished career. . . . This volume should be of particular interest to students, both in its fascinating subject matter and the attractive illustrations that accompany the text."--Choice
