Weeks have passed and I am moved to make another comment. This is
the rare sort of review that makes the reputation of the writer, if the
writer is young in the profession, as I think Mr. Wylie is. Nothing
published on Cohan's book in any magazine or newspaper compares with
this Amazon review in sweep and quality. Rabinowitz's review is more
historically important simply because it was published in the WALL
STREET JOURNAL and repudiates an earlier puff review in the same
newspaper, but Wylie's review surpasses every other in scope, detail,
and rigorous application of high intelligence. With this review Wylie
exalts Amazon's progress as a great honest democratic reviewing site.
