American Literature and the Culture of Reprinting, 1834-1853 analyzes the way unauthorized reprinting structured the American market for literary goods."McGill revises the story we tell about heroic authors in a benighted age before international copyright. Students of antebellum American culture . . . will be consulting her research and citing her arguments frequently and for a long time."--Edgar Allan Poe Review
