Winston's analyses are ... patient, careful and illuminating, such that this book offers more than a few valuable correctives to commonplace notions of the Inns and verdicts on the literature produced there. It encourages one to look forward to future studies, whether by Winston or by those whom this book will inspire, on the clusters of early modern Inns writers that came subsequently: in the 1590s; in the 1610s; in the 1630s-40s.
