10272 Lady Susan Wood engravings by Peter ReddickEdited by Mary Jane Edwards. Brooke [1724 1789] was an English novelist, essayist, playwright and translator. Originally published in 1769, this novel was cited in the earlist OED citation for using the term "literally" for hyperbole or to stress a figurative statement. And I thought that started with the Millenials! Published as part of a project on early English Canadian authors. No jacket. Carleton University Press. Hb, Dj. 1985. $25. 00
