Reviews

'... Masculinity emerges as an important theme. Machielsen shows that White and Burr both saw history as a story of Great Men, and actively valued masculine characteristics. I hope that this book will be taken up as a contribution to the history of nineteenth-century masculinity.' Julian Goodare, Folklore
