Cloth, 8vo, 22 cm, xxv, 536 pp, [54] pp facs. "The Alexander Turnbull Library has one of the world's most extensive collections of early Milton editions, with a significant collection of Miltoniana to support it. This catalogue provides extensive bibliographical descriptions of 224 editions and translations of Milton's works printed before 1801, as well as less detailed entries for 223 other works, the more important Miltoniana in the Library. While descriptions are based primarily upon the Library's copies, comparisons have often been made with copies elsewhere, to make the descripions fuller and more complete.This catalogue is the first publication to describe extensively any substantial group of eighteenth-century editions of Milton. It brings together most of the previously scattered scholarship on the bibliography of the seventeenth-century editions, as well as providing a more extensive listing of Miltoniana up to 1801 than has hitherto been available." - from the blurb.
