Customer Reviews
Good, but room for improvement on printing
Brilliant that these essays are in print, but very close typeset and rather intense layout. Content superb - "Statesmen & Legislators, stannding so completely within the institution, never distinctly and nakedly behold it" - written in 1849, accurate in the UK in 2009!
