The Wellesley index to Victorian periodicals, 1824-1900.

Format: Print.

Notes: This publication is an issue-by-issue list of the contents of 43 major periodicals. It includes an index of the authors of articles and reviews, but it does not index by the author of the book reviewed. Reviews written by a given author can easily be found by looking in the cumulated index of authors in vol. 5; the only way to find reviews of a specific book is to scan the entries starting in the year it was published.
