I enjoy these for the enthusiasm Lin Carter has for Sword & Sorcery. His writing of was not strong, take his entry in this volume for example, but he was a great promoter of S&S and classic fantasy in general (here I refer to him as editor of the Ballantine Adult Fantasy Series). On a drunken lark, he founded SAGA (Sword and Sorcery Guild of America). It was to thumb his nose at those who scoffed at S&S and included drinking games and outrageous titles.
