| Thanks. That is discussed in a book I have, but I didn't feel like re-reading about it. I wish I were finding a site that I would trust with info about the history of their work as produced in America, but I'm not. But although I'm sure that, as in England, some works were less successful than others, in general their popularity in the U.S. can hardly be overstated. And people everywhere particularly wanted to see the three most popular ones. |
