This book has either been rushed into print, or simply rushed. There are so many typos and repetitions that clearly a competent proof-reader or editor were not involved in its production. The book's subtitle says "A True Story of Literary Crime and The Art of Forgery" but the copyright and publisher's blurb states categorically that "This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, brands, media and incidents are either the product of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously."The book assembles a series of factoids about literary forgers, suitable for a newspaper article or Wikipedia, but tries to justify the title by mentioning Emily Dickinson and other real writers from time to time. It's a speedy read, no new content and unless you need a beginner's book on literary forgers, there are much better books about.
