Collection: Wordsworth Collectors Edition

Wordsworth Editions was established in 1987, but it was the launch in 1992 of the £1 Classic paperback, the brainchild of the late Michael Trayler, that put them in spotlight. This was back in the days before book prices could be discounted so the fact that we could offer titles at a fraction of the cost of existing editions caused something of a sensation, and made them irresistible to lovers of classic literature.

Today, Wordsworth Editions ensure that classic literature is made available to everyone in the most beautiful way.

These compact hardbacks are cloth-bound, with matching coloured end papers, embossed gold and coloured blocking.

These editions are admired by literature-lovers and the design savvy looking for reasonably priced, beautiful hardbacks to add to their collections.
