New York: W. W. Norton & Company 1979. Book. New. Soft cover. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Large trade paperback new in publisher's shrink-wrap. 684 pages . Edited by Jonathan Wordsworth M. H Abrams and Stephen Gill. Contains preface chronological table critical review of the 1850 revision and seven scholarly critical essays. "This book is the first to present Wordsworth's great poem in all three of its separate forms. It reprints on facing pages the version of The Prelude that was completed in 1805 together with the much-revised work published after the poet's death in 1850. In addition the editors include the two-part version of the poem composed in 1798-99. Each of these poems has its distinctive qualities and values; to read them together provides an incomparable chance to observe a great poet composing and recomposing throughout a long life his major work." from rear panel The definitive critical study of Wordsworth's magnum opus.
