The Riverside Chaucer

*****

This book is a must for anybody who is a true Chaucer fan. It contains almost every bit of info known about him and even includes some things, which were going on during his life. It gets five out of five stars!


The Canterbury Tales

*****

This book is great for anybody studying Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. It contains every Canterbury Tale written by him. It's price is very cheap for such a nice book. Click the link and you may also be able to find a nicer one at a slightly higher price, which would fit somebody who is collecting English literature. I gave it five out of five stars, which it deserves.


Cliffs Notes for the Canterbury Tales

****

A book great for a college student, or just about anyone having trouble understanding the Canterbury Tales. It also provides a good outline for writing papers about them, becuase it eliminates the need to keep looking back at the original copy of them. It should be used by about everybody purchasing the Canterbury Tales. However, not everyone really needs it, so it got the rating of four out of five stars. (Take the time to check with your proffessor if this book is okay to use, and remember, the full version is always better!)

Love Visions : The Book of the Duchess, The House of Fame, The Parliament of Birds, The Legends of Good Women

*****

This book is for the people who have read the Canterbuy Tales already, and want to read more of Geoffrey Chaucer's work. It contains the full versions of all of the stories listed above, fully bound into one book. You will find after reading this book that Chaucer's best work was not only just his Canterbury Tales. I rated this book five out of five stars!


Chaucer: 1340-1400: The Life and Times of the First English Poet

*****

This book is for the people, who want to study more of Chaucer's life rather than his works. It is also good for people who want to find out about the things, which affected Chaucer's work. It is a new release, so grab it now before the price goes up. This book easily earned five out of five stars, and would have earned more if there were more.
