Publisher's Note
Dickens A to Z is a guide to Dickens's life, works, characters, the Victorian context in which he lived and wrote, and the critics and scholars who have commented on his novels. This unique encyclopedia is a superbly organized, integrated reference suitable for both Dickens scholars and Dickens fans. Among the more than 2,500 cross-referenced entries can be found articles about: every Dickens novel, including story synopses, commentary, criticism, and adaptations; each of Dickens's journalistic essays, sketches, poems, and plays; each character Dickens created; Dickens's family, friends, acquaintances, professional contemporaries, and critics; places important to Dickens's life and work; social issues in Victorian England; and much more. This encyclopedia is enhanced by 50 illustrations, many of them by Dickens's contemporaries, a chronology, a selected bibliography, and an index.

Industry reviews
Davis (English, Univ. of New Mexico, Albuquerque) has exhaustively researched the material for this comprehensive and extremely valuable guide, the latest in the publisher's "A to Z" series. The more than 2500 entries cover the significant elements of Dickens's life, synopses of his works, "biographies" of his characters, descriptions of the novels' settings, and relevant historical information. The body of Dickensian criticism is also summarized. This important reference work should be included in both public and academic libraries. Diane G. Premo, Rochester P.L., NY
Leuchtenburg 

Gr 9 Up This title takes readers into the world of Dickens, both real and imaginary. Davis has used letters, criticism, correspondence, reviews, bibliographies, and text to provide detailed synopses of all of the author's major and minor works, the critical reception of each one, and character descriptions. Dickens's life is described in fascinating detail (e.g., readers learn about the real child who inspired the creation of Tiny Tim). Black-and-white illustrations, a chronology of the writer's life and major works, and an extensive index complete this book. Students will love the clear descriptions and facts offered up in this fine dictionary. Linda A. Vretos, West Springfield High School, Springfield, VA
