Description

Edited and translated by: Kennedy, Charles W.;
Reviews
"Overall, this is a handy translation of one of the most important Old-English literary texts. It makes the text quite readable and hence enjoyable for the students."--A. Classen, University of Arizona "Good introductory material--not too technical or detailed for the sophomore or for a class in which we can only spend about one week on each work. Translation is good. Reads fairly naturally without resorting to colloquialisms."--Dennis Kearney, University of Mississippi "Accessible text for students at any level; retains the essence of its original; printed in comfortable type on substantial paper; printed with generous margins that encourage student notations."--Dr. Scott Douglass, Chattanooga State Technical Community College "I examined six different editions for use in my class of sophomore non-majors. This edition is powerful poetry combined with an excellent introduction. The poetry achieves far more clarity than any prose I've seen."--Rebecca Martin, Pace University

Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
