Review Quotes: "Editor, author, de facto publisher, and dedicated teacher, Greg Clingham is remarkable among eighteenth-century scholars for his versatility and productivity. A Clubbable Man brings together a star-studded cast of Clingham's colleagues, students, and friends to celebrate a career of consequence in a suitably diverse, elegantly written, and original collection of essays."--Robert DeMaria "editor of The Yale Edition of the Works of Samuel Johnson"
