Publisher's Synopsis
At last - a complete, critically edited edition of the Waverley Novels as Scott originally wrote them. All 28 of the Waverley Novels are now available as Edinburgh Editions. The Edition will be complete with the publication of the two Introductions and notes from the Magnum Opus edition 1829-33 volumes in 2011.
Find Out What Scott Really Wrote
Going back to the original manuscripts, a team of scholars has uncovered what Scott originally wrote and intended his public to read before errors, misreadings and expurgations crept in during production.
The Edinburgh Edition offers you:
- A clean, corrected text
- Textual histories
- Explanatory notes
- Verbal changes from the first edition text
- Full glossaries
'The Edinburgh Edition respects Scott the artist by 'restoring' versions of the novels that are not quite what his first readers saw … This edition is for anyone who takes Scott seriously.'
