Reviews

'Mary L. Shannon's informative book offers an entirely new way to think about print culture. In focusing on Wellington Street off the Strand, where important Victorian writers such as Dickens, Mayhew, and Reynolds maintained their offices, she demonstrates the significance of geography for understanding the print networks that developed in midcentury London.' Anne Humpherys, City University of New York, USA, author of Travels into the Poor Man's Country: The Work of Henry Mayhew 'Shannon's ambitious project reflects extensive reading in contemporary critical theory. ... By investigating a print culture being created within a specific time and space, she opens interesting avenues for further exploration. Her monograph stands as a lively and valuable contribution to contemporary research into Victorian periodical publications.' NBOL-19
