Milton: Poems AND Selected Prose

This paperback edition shows significant signs of wear, including creases and edge wear on the cover. The pages are yellowed, consistent with its age, and there is a handwritten inscription on the title page. The binding remains intact, though the absence of a dust jacket is noted. Suitable for readers interested in a historical copy rather than pristine condition.
