Great seller, accurate description and fast shipping!

Buon acquisto: un bel libro in buone condizioni complessive e ben spedito.

Libro corrispondente alla descrizione, in buone condizioni. Arrivato in tempi rapidi.

Incomplete - only 1/2 of Paradise Lost and 1/2 of a set that should contain Paradise Regained but NONE of Paradise Regained is present in Vol 2. Not AT ALL as described. Very deceptive.

Regarding your claim that the works are incomplete, this is explicitly stated in the listing itself. In the section titled “Size and Pagination,” it clearly indicates from the outset that these are 2 out of 4 volumes that make up the complete works. Additionally, the description specifies and it can be inferred from the listing that there are a total of 10 engravings. This is broken down as follows: one frontispiece in Volume I, one engraving for each book/chapter of Paradise Lost (six in total), and three engravings in Volume II.
In any case, all of the above is secondary, as the listing explicitly states that these are 2 out of 4 volumes. Moreover, the images clearly show that Volume I is the fourth edition of Paradise Lost, Volume I, and that Volume II is the third edition of Paradise Regain’d, Volume II, with their respective contents visible.
