This 30-volume set contains all of the novels from the Edinburgh Edition plus 2 volumes on the Magnum Opus Notes and Introductions.'A passionately argued edition that refuses to shy away from the critical work that defines editing at its best. Corporately and individually, the editors have set and achieved demanding standards. Their minute scrutiny of textual states does not lie inert in synoptic apparatus, but is woven into cogent expositions of Scott's remarkable feats of composition.

Scott emerges once again as a writer of heroic stature.'Kathyrn Sutherland, The Times Literary SupplementFind out what Scott originally wrote and intended his public to read before errors, misreadings and expurgations crept in during production.Professor David Hewitt and his team of distinguished scholars and editors have returned to the original manuscripts, to uncover the Waverley Novels as they were originally intended to be published.
