5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent, Dec 16 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire Box Set (Hardcover)
Gibbon aficionados simply cannot be without this splendid new edition of *The Decline and Fall*. I believe that this is the first critical edition, and it establishes a pure *Decline and Fall* in all of its original glory (including the original thematic index). The book's production is simply superb: beautifully bound and boxed, this set is a joy, and well worth the hefty price. It's especially worthwhile through Amazon.com, since you only pay about $30 more for the hardcover than you would for the Penguin paperback versions of this edition at a regular bookstore.

This review is from: Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire Box Set (Hardcover)
This is a masterful work, no one denies this. The great thing about this edition is that the footnotes are updated, so you are able to see where Gibbon got his primary source material (some lost by now.) The work was originally published in six volumes, this edition reproduces them into three. The are, as a result quite large.
