I have used this book only once, as it s price puts it out of the reach not only of myself, but also of most institutional libraries in the UK. On that occasion I tested it against a known corpus of letter to The Times in 1866 on which I had worked, and which I had transcribed and published. I was alarmed to find that the Index picked up only about half of the letters. Hence my warning: use with care. It is beyond doubt that the rich material in the book will be useful to those wanting to get an initial lead on educational subjects. My concern is, does the poor success rate I found reflect that of the rest of the Index? A separate point: the Index has been long in the making. In future, i hope that such indexes will be either online or on CD Rom, where the search facilities are far superior to that in a printed volume.
