Title: Great biography for the student of Milton
Product review: As an undergraduate student taking a Milton class, I found this biography extremely valuable - it provided good background, religious, political and psychological, in what motivated Milton - his core beliefs that drove his most powerful works. Milton studies can be an intimidating process. Parker makes it less so. Unfortunately, the price is prohibitive - try a library, because this biography is a pleasant read for a new student, and thorough enough for a scholar or more in-depth investigation. In second volume are the notes and annotations for the main biography, which are invaluable for anyone wishing to do further research. Parker and Campbell bring Milton into the 21st century - making him accessible and understandable. It whetted my appetite for more Milton. I wish it was cheaper though!
