A Good Introduction4
I had been trying to locate an edition of Chatterton's poems for quite awhile. This seems to be the only edition in print as of now, and though it is a relatively scant volume, I suppose it will suffice. It features a thorough biographical introduction, as well as explanatory notes. Essential for Romantic scholars and enthusiasts, but be aware of what you are ordering before you pay more than the cover price.
