Review
"...Hale adds to the discussion by explicating passages of distinctly Miltonic borrowing and adaptation. Hale's analyses of Milton's Latin poems and Latin prose works are especially insightful." S. Archer, Choice
"This is then a thoughtful, learned, and judicious book, carefully argued and supported by a wealth of convincing detail. It is refreshingly free from jargon...There is a very useful index of Milton passage sited. This book can be warmly recommended to all students of Milton." Modern Philology
