A suberbly illustrated edition of the classic poem. Samuel Taylor Coleridge produced nearly all of his best poetry in a two year period, 1797-1798, including The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Kubla Khan. After writing Ode to Dejection (1802), his farewell to the Muse of Poetry, he wrote few poems and concentrated almost exclusively on literary criticism and political, philosophical, and theological essays.

Similar to Dover edition,

This review is from: The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (Hardcover)
This review is just to point out that this edition is basically the same as the The Dover Edition with the following exceptions:
1. This edition is hardcover. 2. The Dore engravings are very slightly reduced in size in this edition. 3. This edition's introduction focuses mostly on Coleridge and the Dover edition's is all about Dore. 4. This edition has a few additional selections of Coleridge poetry at the end. These are nice and have engravings by a different artist. I bought this version just so I would have a hardcover copy but appreciate the additional material.

I have long wanted to find a copy in book form of Coleridge's classic poem suitable as a gift to my daughter.This copy appealed to me on several counts. It is attractively presented,
well-bound,slim,has a clear type-face and includes about 40 superb illustrations by Gustave Dore. My daughter was very impressed and delighted to receive it.

I sent this to my girlfriend as a gift, and she loves it. She said that the printing is relatively high quality (which is important b/c of the illustrations). It is hardcover.
