Walkley [1855-1926] was a noted London drama critic. Jane Austen comes up in several essays in this collection of his ruminations. Walkley discusses the new Austen novels edited by Chapman, just released by the Clarendon Press, and offers some criticism. He also disagrees on a few points with a recent article by Sheila Kaye-Smith. An opportunity to see what an Austen fan who is definitely a product of his time had to say about Miss Jane around 100 years ago. Very Good. M455. 1st edition. William Heinemann Ltd. London. 1925.
