A good, readable modern study of Gilbert's libretti for Sullivan, which relates them to Gilbert's other plays and to the Victorian theatrical scene. This is the book that first made me realise that Gilbert might be worth serious study, so I can forgive it the occasional fault in the argument.
This review was written by Andrew Crowther. Savoyard Books is very grateful to Andrew for allowing the use of his work on our web-site.
