"His literary merits earned him election in 1970 to the National Institute of Arts and Letters.... His witty and frequently learned criticism...appeared in collections that retained their interest and focus when the pages of the original publication had yellowed." --The New York Times "He was America's leading literary intellectual journalist and the best-known cultural critic to the general public.... his finest work makes him a worthy descendent of H.L. Mencken and Edmund Wilson. He is worth remembering." --John Rodden "One reason he continues to be appealing is that he has always, without apology, remained exactly what he is: an intellectual.... Those who read much and care about the quality of what they read ought to be grateful for the consistent tough-mindedness of Dwight MacDonald.... He is provocative and well worth rereading. The quality of his essays is in direct ratio to their ambitiousness." --Larry McMurtry, The Washington Post
