Recensioner i media

“A welcome complement to the large and growing collection of fine modernized texts of Milton’s poetry and prose currently in print.” (Studies in English Literature, Winter 2008) "[The book] prints its notes on the same page as the text - and thus makes them easily accessible. Its readable typeface makes it the best of the old-spelling editions currently available. It scrupulously adheres to the originally published forms of the language wherever possible." (Times Literary Supplement, December 2008)
