Note 265a — VIII. LORD ACTON’S LIST OF THE HUNDRED BEST BOOKS
Reading edition
Crabbe’s Works, in eight volumes, with biography by his son, may be obtained very cheaply from the second-hand book seller. With all the merits of both Works and Life they have not been reprinted satisfactorily. The only good modern edition of Crabbe’s Poems is in three volumes published by the Cambridge University Press, edited by A. W. Ward.
