Note 449 — A WORDSWORTH BIBLIOGRAPHY

As this volume (No. 32 in the list) was the last printed for the Messrs. Longman, and issued by that firm and by Mr. Moxon jointly, it is desirable to mention here, in a footnote, that, with the exception of The Evening Walk and Descriptive Sketches (which were published by J. Johnson) every one of Wordsworth’s works from 1798 to 1836—thirty in number—were introduced to the world by the Messrs. Longman. It is questionable if any firm has ever had a similar “record” in connection with the works of any great poet.—Ed.
