Comment: Google Books has helpfully made the page in Meg Greene's biography unavailable to view after I used the citation in writing the article.

The source is up again, and I adjusted the URL. Here is a review: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook is hooky; hook ref verified and cited inline. Image is freely licensed and goes well with the hook. QPQ done. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 19:49, 20 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
