From the Publisher

Founded in 1906 by J.M. Dent, the Everyman Library has always tried to make the best books ever written available to the greatest number of people at the lowest possible price. Unique editorial features that help Everyman Paperback Classics stand out from the crowd include: a leading scholar or literary critic's introduction to the text, a biography of the author, a chronology of her or his life and times, a historical selection of criticism, and a concise plot summary. All books published since 1993 have also been completely restyled: all type has been reset, to offer a clarity and ease of reading unique among editions of the classics; a vibrant, full-color cover design now complements these great texts with beautiful contemporary works of art. But the best feature must be Everyman's uniquely low price. Each Everyman title offers these extensive materials at a price that competes with the most inexpensive editions on the market-but Everyman Paperbacks have durable binding, quality paper, and the highest editorial and scholarly standards.

This review is from: Andrew Marvell Eman Poet Lib #25 (Everyman Poetry) (Paperback)

I purchased this collection for a class in which I wrote a paper discussing "Upon Appleton House" and a few of his other poems. Although this was cheap, the paperback is so thin it is more of a pamphlet, and you are probably better off just sourcing these poems from other anthologies, the internet, or even by making photocopies at the library. I can never find this in my bookshelf when I want to, and it is not comprehensive enough of a poetry collection to warrant purchasing it for academic use.
