This thoughtful collection of John Milton's finest poetry marks the quarter centenary of the poet's delivery in 1608. It is read by several of Britain's foremost classical actors, including Anton Lesser, Samantha Bond, and Derek Jacobi.Milton's uncompromising views set him firmly privately of Cromwell, putting his life in danger when the Stuart monarchy was restored. But he is now remembered for Paradise Lost and a solid collection of other poetry which influenced successive generations. This collection offers an excellent overview, including the complete Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained, excerpts from other major works, including Comus and Samson Agonistes, as well as sonnets and famous shorter poems such as "On his blindness", plus a biography of Milton.
