Despite all of his acknowledged greatness, almost no one reads Edmund Spenser (1552-99) anymore. Roy Maynard takes the first book of the 'Faerie Queene, ' exploring the concept of Holiness with the character of the Redcross Knight, and makes Spenser accessible again. He does this not by dumbing it down, but by deftly modernizing the spelling, explaining the obscurities in clever asides, and cuing the reader towards the right response. In today's cultural, aesthetic, and educational wars, Spenser is a mighty ally for twenty-first century Christians. Maynard proves himself a worthy mediator between Spenser's time and ours. (Gene Edward Veith)

Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Edmund Spenser, Vol. 5 of 5 And ye, faire blossoms of youths wanton breed Which in the conquests of your beautie bost, Wherewith your lovers feeble eyes you feed, But sterve their harts that needeth nourture most, Prepare your selves to march amongst his host, And all the way this sacred Hymne do sing.
