?Warnicke has written an excellent monograph dealing with an
inordinately neglected topic: the education of English women during
the Tudor and early Stuart eras. ... Her approach, a generational
one, is both perceptive and insightful.... She carefully identifies
the women and discusses the reasons and nature of their education
as well as their accomplishments. Equally masterful is her
successful integration of the subject with the major
historical--ecclesiastical, political, and social-- currents of the
time. Warnicke's extensively researched and documented contribution
is a pioneering effort.?-Choice
