The Masqueraders, or Fatal Curiosity, and The Surprize, or Constancy Rewarded

‘Highly recommended.’  Choice Magazine vol 53:08:2016

‘Potter’s engaging new edition of The Masqueraders is a worthy addition to the classroom syllabus and to the scholar’s bookshelf.’

Earla Wilputte, Eighteenth Century Fiction vol 29:02:2016

“This is a splendid edition, eminently suitable for the classroom and also useful to critics with an interest in Haywood, the eighteenth-century novel, and eighteenth-century literature and culture more generally.”

Kathryn R. King, Department of English, University of Montevallo, and author of 'A Political Biography of Eliza Haywood'

“An edition of The Masqueraders and The Surprize is long overdue. Potter’s introduction and editorial work is careful and precise, and her discussion of Haywood and popular culture is fascinating.”

Kirsten Saxton, Department of English, Mills College, and author of 'The Passionate Fictions of Eliza Haywood'

“Potter’s annotations of contemporary vocabulary, customs, literary conventions, and allusions to other texts are full and thoughtful, informed by her experience teaching these novels.”

David Oakleaf, Department of English, University of Calgary, and editor of Eliza Haywood's 'Love in Excess'
