...Jeffries, I would like to see your documentation--I've read the books you named, and they don't support your claims. You said I wasn't serious about my scholarship because I've never received a half million dollar grant. If you are reading this, Dr. Jeffries, I challenge you to offer me a position doing research.

The Lampitts tend to be woolly leftists cultivating small gardens of scholarship and politics and dandling hangers-on like Julian Ramsay, the diffident narrator of all three books. In the first, Incline Our Hearts, Ramsay is a young man full of bright promise. In the second, A Bottle in the Smoke, reality, in the form of diminished hopes and a doomed marriage, sets in. By Daughters of Albion he is contemplating a book on -- guess who? -- the Lampitts...
