The contributors listed on the title leaf are separated by gender; they include William C. Bryant J. Fenimore Cooper Henry W. Longfellow Mrs. Lydia H. Sigourney et al.; there are also three first printing columns of Marginalia by Edgar A. Poe.~~Of particular interest are reviews of Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights. The reviewer of Jane Eyre had this to say “when the authoress comes to deal with great passions and represent morbid characters we find that she is out of her element.†The contemporary review of Wuthering Heights was scathing “universally disappointed expectations†.“There is an Old English saying that those who eat toasted cheese at night will dream of Lucifer. The author of Wuthering Heights has evidently eat toasted cheese. How a human being could have attempted such a book as the present without committing suicide before he has finished a dozen chapters is a mystery.†Unattributed review and with good reason.
