REVIEWS
“The 19th-century British Library Newspapers add to a rich collection of other historical material that is already available from Cengage. . . . Gale's other U.K. historical material includes the Economist archive from 1843 to 2000, the Burney Collection of 17th- and 18th-century newspapers, and 19th-century U.K. periodicals. . . .Together, these resources will give historians and other researchers unparalleled access to historical material.”
“Gale has selected resources for this collection to form a geographically dispersed and politically diverse body of material. The publication runs are often extensive, with many titles running 100 years or more. This part could be considered more esoteric than previous offerings, with the majority of titles representing smaller regional papers covering non-metropolitan areas. However, integrated with additional parts of the British Newspapers, 1600-1950 collection, the material may provide valuable additional insight on historical and social issues of 19th and 20th century Britain.”
