Great economical purchase:
An excellent buy! I was forced to buy the 3000+ page book for my Brit Lit class, but I needed something smaller. Also, there is no way in the world I am going to lug that mammoth book around for four months. I decided to purchase the smaller 3 volume set and I am glad I did. Same information, but in a more compact size. Great for people studying English/British literature courses.
Great deal for students:
This is essentially a three-volume pack. This is not a giant 3000-page book. if you were to buy each volume separately, you would be spending 3*40=120 dollars. Buying this saves you a minimum of 70 bucks. Buy this if you're studying English Poetry/literature.
Excellent Resource:
I ordered this book for my literature studies and it is an excellent resource or English poetry, prose and literature. Not only was it more economical to order from Amazon, but it came sooner than expected. If you want one of the best companions for lit, this it the one.
