Very simple: the print is not clear....some of the letters in the words are not completely "inked"...maybe the publisher thought this was more "historical" but it is a major distraction and if I had sent the book before I bought it, I wouldn't have.

I just bought this off of Kindle, and I was a little scared that it would not have the correct line breaks like some poems that have been transferred onto Kindle. I am happy to inform you that this Kindle version of Holmes' poetry does have the correct line breaks and shows the poem just as it would have been read on a page!
