This is a major revision of the first edition, which was named by theWall Street Journal as the second most essential of all reference works.  It is the product of highly innovative research techniques enabling the histories of many familiar quotes to be rewritten.The other most notable feature of theNYBQis the spotlighting of a significant number of famous quotations that are commonly attributed to prominent men but were actually originated by obscure women.  Virginia Woolf's notion of "Anonymous was a woman" is central to the book.  

TheNYBQ, of course, has an accurate and thorough treatment of quotations by Woolf herself.
