Review:
Students of Emily Dickinson will find a lot of clues as to the subsequent household into which she was born.--<i>Journal of American Studies</i>|""Pollak has done Dickinson scholarship a great favor. Thanks to her research and insightful commentary, the courtship letters emerge as a fertile source for further interpretation of Dickinson's identity, life, and work.""--Polly Longsworth, author of <i>Austin and Mabel: The Amherst Affair and Love Letters of Austin Dickinson and Mabel Loomis Todd</i>
