THE AUGUSTAN REPRINT SOCIETY

MAKES AVAILABLE

Inexpensive Reprints of Rare Materials

FROM

ENGLISH LITERATURE OF THE

SEVENTEENTH AND EIGHTEENTH CENTURIES

Students, scholars, and bibliographers of literature, history, and philology will find the publications valuable. The Johnsonian News Letter has said of them:  “Excellent facsimiles, and cheap in price, these represent the triumph of modern scientific reproduction.  Be sure to become a subscriber; and take it upon yourself to see that your college library is on the mailing list.”

The Augustan Reprint Society is a non-profit, scholarly organization, run without overhead expense.  By careful management it is able to offer at least six publications each year at the unusually low membership fee of $2.50 per year in the United States and Canada, and $2.75 in Great Britain and the continent.
