From the Publisher
"Roxana is possibly Defoe's most fascinating story-teller and this, one of his most intriguing stories."—The Daily Telegraph
"Excellent introduction by John Mullan; wisely selected bibliography; full notes."—Robert C. Steensma, University of Utah"The World's Classics edition of 'Roxana' is an attractive volume with a nice picture on the cover, and it seems to have been well edited by John Mullan. I especially like the map of Defoe's London. Unfortunately, I find 'Roxana' far less interesting that 'Robinson Crusoe' and 'Moll Flanders'.—Peter Wirth, University of Mississippi"Excellent introduction by John Mullan."—Mary Paynter, Edgewood College"The text seems beautifully done - striking cover, easy-to-read structure, and helpful intro and scholarship."—W.H. Reames, Jr., Erskine College"A beautiful edition, a helpful introduction."—Archibald G. Coolidge, Jr., University of Iowa"This is an excellent series and one of the best available editions of Defoe's last work. The introduction is extensive and helpful, a great teaching aid. Thank you for keeping this neglected classic available for us."—Carl Kremer, William Woods University"Excellent notes and introductions - more useful in the classroom than any other paperback edition."—Allen Michie, Coastal Carolina University
