A Book Lover's Must-Have!, Nov 19 2007
By Eileen Cunningham - Published on Amazon.com
This edition of Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights is, without question, where my lifelong love of books and English literature was born. As a child, I would pore over the Fritz Eichenberg wood engravings in my mother's set and long for the day when I would be old enough to read the books. Unlike anything before or since, the Eichenberg illustrations dramatically convey the atmosphere of the Bronte novels--dark, cold, sad, and haunting. I have purchased these sets for students who also have grown to love the Brontes, so my only reservation in urging people to buy these books is that I will need a few remaining copies to buy for future students, I am sure! It would be wonderful if a publisher would undertake a re-issuing of this edition of the novels.

Love these books, Feb 12 2010
By Gretchen Larese - Published on Amazon.com
These are two great classics, and my daughter had to read Jane Eyre for school. She was having trouble reading her copy because we found out she was in need of new glasses. Downloading to the Kindle and making the font bigger spurred her into reading and liking the book.

print size very small and no wood block prints, Oct 6 2011
By S. Gilfillan "s.g." - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights (Paperback)
This review is for the paperback book.
well the type is much to small. and i was hoping for woodblock prints (like the cover) throughout the book. i had wuthering heights as a child and my book was full of them. and no table of contents. interesting format. still 2 wonderful stories.
