4.0 out of 5 stars
A fine introduction to this Olde English classic.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beowulf: Revised Edition (Paperback)
If the thought of reading the Olde English version of Beuwulf scares you, don't despair. Professor Tharaud's version, written for English as a Second Language classes, works just as well for those of us for whom it is the first language. In addition, it has the good sense to use Rockwell Kent's classic illustrations. An important book, beautifully illustrated, at a fine price. Who can ask for anything more?
