Reviews
"In her marvelous new edition of Ormond, Mary Chapman has given scholars, teachers and students of Charles Brockden Brown what they have longed for: an affordable paperback edition complete with a trenchant, historically-textured introduction to Brown's least known, and most underrated major novel. Chapman's exhaustive labour in both the classic and contemporary criticism of the early American novel, coupled with her thorough knowledge of the philosophical and political pamphlet literature of the early national period, afford the modern reader the very sort of 'thick description' so often lost in considering the work of America's first 'professional' novelist." Julia Stern, Northwestern University
