St Mary's Books is proud to present this collection of John Milton's Poetical Works - from the text of Dr. Newton and with a critical essay by J. Aikin, M.D. Opposite the title page one can see the frontispiece illustration of the poet Milton. Each volume is marked with a pen inscription of one of the previous owners on the front pastedowns. The books are bound with beautiful tree-calf boards, the spine is decorated with gilt borders, bands, detailing and lettering. There is substantial cracking to the spines and joints, especially to that of vol.iv. which has split. The corners of the boards are bumped and there is rubbing to the covers. This set contains Milton's most iconic works and would be the perfect buy for any collectors of poetry.
