Book Reviews
(Older works have few, if any, online reviews from mainstream press. Take a look at customer reviews from Amazon or Barnes & Noble.)

 Mr. Dickens may be reasonably proud of these volumes.... He has written a story that is new, original, powerful and very entertaining.... It is in his best vein, and although it is too slight, and bears many traces of hasty writing, it is quite worthy to stand beside Martin Chuzzlewit and David Copperfield.
