I read this primarily as part of initial research into the educational/training context of A.A. Hodge, son of one of the Old Princetonian School OT scholars who then moved on to the Systematic Theology chair. A well-researched, and thoroughly documented, study of OT studies by an OT scholar herself. I do with that Taylor would have taken the time to do a little more of the comparative/story-telling work between chapters, to connect the whole work a little more. The latter chapters were also a little underwritten (though understandably so).
