Review
“[K]ent-Drury offers a long-awaited and much-needed tool for teachers and instructors of high school and college world literature. The text is a resource for those "educators who have received one too many papers based on poor information gleaned from Internet resources"....[a]n excellent primary reference text. Kent-Drury's volume is the latest of the Libraries Unlimited series that offers creative assistance for high school and college teachers in the area of "Critical Thinking." Although the text is most readily a resource, it would be an excellent complimentary tool for a pedagogical course for instructors.”–Kentucky Philological Review
