So honored to learn that my book British Romanticism and Peace has received the 2023 Marilyn Gaull Book Award from the Wordsworth-Coleridge Association. Many thanks to the WCA and The Wordsworth Circle as well.

"Occasionally, very occasionally, a book comes along that reorients one’s views about the Romantic Period ... John Bugg’s book, Romanticism and Peace, is such a book."
Thank you to Heidi J. Snow for this review in the latest edition of ERR. https://t.co/mJosVfTLPU

@mlickona Any chance that you have contact info for Shepherd? I'd love to talk to him about the New Yorker bookstore, where I believed he worked in the 1970s.

@kingsbookstore Very interesting! I've just had a look for this book but I haven't seen it listed anywhere - do you know if it's for sale now, or forthcoming?

Paul is an absolute hero to so many of us in publishing. His ceaseless curiosity, adventurousness, moral courage, alertness to subterranean currents, and, above all, sense of fun will always be an inspiration to readers, writers, and publishers alike.

[John Bugg @Bugg_JW]

Coming soon… a new article cluster in the Keats-Shelley Review on Mary Shelley’s novel Valperga, published 200 years ago!
Many thanks to KSR editor @james_grande
