    I am looking for reviews of Brian Loring Villa's Unauthorised Action. Does anybody know of any? I have a few from academic journals but I am looking for more.

    Hello Ross

    This is no answer, I'm afraid...:(....it is a great shame that there is no easily-accessible ( that I know of ) collected source of good, contemporary reviews. If I have the foresight, I cut out and keep reviews of books which are likely to interest me.

    The Sunday papers and journals such as Literary Review publish excellent reviews when these books are published ( from reviewers such as John Keegan, Richard Overy, Stephen Bungay etc etc ) and it really does seem that many of these very useful reviews just 'vanish from sight' as soon as the newspaper is thrown away.....

    Martin - I know what you mean. I really should keep hold of reviews but don't. Ah well back to the database and trawl through it again.
