'This much needed edition of Charles Burney's letters makes a central contribution to the current spate of editions of sources for the Burneys and their circle. Riniero's presentation of the documents is full and helpful ... By supplying this kind of detailed documentation across the impressively wide range of topics covered in the letters ... Ribiero brings out the breadth of scholarly uses to which these letter lend themselves.' Valerie Rumbold, Music and Letters, Vol. 73, No. 4
