A very beautiful book! I couldn't be more pleased. The attention to detail, and conception of this edition, are wonderful. Of all the Lawrence books I have collected, this stands alone as a prized possession.
019 SP 2003 cl Belgium
This book is a bargain, printing and binding superb.
018 TEL-Shaw correspondence
Vols I and II		 UK

I cannot praise too highly the quality of the production, with exceptional clarity and beauty of print, the erudition of editing, and the excellent on-line service. Important correspondence in beautiful books - the perfect combination.
017 SP 2003
¼ goatskin		 Czech Republic

I'm delighted with the quality of this publication. Cover and binding of the book are beautifully realised. Text layout and choice of font and size of font are in keeping with what book lovers require: no distraction when reading and absorbing contents. I am thoroughly satisfied! And recommend Castle Hill Press as a Publishing House that not only prepares, produces and publishes magnificent books of historical and cultural significance, highly important - and some would stop at that; but CHP cares about ultimate end user needs too. And to have access - because of their efforts - to a complete 1922 Oxford Text - at an affordable price - is a godsend! Thank You Castle Hill Press!

Comment: While presenting new material to Lawrence studies, Castle Hill Press delivers a pleasing combination of scholarship and fine binding in each edition surpassing Corvinus and Golden Cockerel. 
015 SP 2003 ¼ goatskin UK

The publishing world needs more people like the Wilsons.  Although, so far, I have only one book from Castle Hill Press their standards are of the highest quality. Excellence in research and editing, and magnificently produced books in superb bindings. Last but not least, efficient and friendly service, with books posted in rock solid packaging.  
014 SP 2004 USA
I've always wanted to own the "Oxford" edition.  Now, thanks to CHP, I have it; and I wouldn't have missed it for the world.  Many thanks to CHP for publishing this--it was long overdue!  Overall, I prefer it to the '26/'35 subscribers' edition.

As a subscriber since 1990 to most editions, I have never been disappointed with the quality, content, binding and service. These books are a pleasure to own and read. Value for money 10 out of 10.   T. E. would have approved.

SP 2003 full goatskin		 UK
Castle Hill Press is doing a quite invaluable job in publishing (very beautifully - I have the quarter goatskin volumes of the Letters, and the full goatskin 1922 [which is fabulous]) many of the writings of TEL which hitherto have been available only in manuscript form in museums, libraries or private collections, or in out-of-print books which are very hard to obtain.  I really treasure my 1922 SPoW. More power to your elbows, Castle Hill Press, carry on. More please. Your work is helping enormously to bring a much fuller, more balanced picture of TEL to a much wider public
010 All CHP publications Belgium
Superb! All of them.
009 SP 2003 cl UK
I am glad that I found Castle Hill Press. The binding etc. is excellent
008 FG 2004 ¼cl USA
Another great book! Even though I don't read French, I'm very happy to have this book in my Lawrence library. The page layout is easy on the eyes and I'm looking forward to reading it.
007 All CHP publications UK
An excellent set of publications that are beautifully edited and produced. A wonderful addition to my library and to any library.
006 SP 1997 ¼ cloth UK [not applicable]
I actually bought this edition from a leading London bookshop [Hatchards], but it alerted me to the existence of Castle Hill Press. As a lover of a) beautiful books and b) all things Lawrence, I am now a regular subscriber.
005 SP 2003 full goatskin UK
This is a superb production in every respect: binding, paper, printing, plates. I also have the full-cloth library edition - excellent - and the trade edition whose production values to my mind fully equal the best available in that market. The Wilsons deserve the widest support in their endeavours.
004 FG 2004 ¼cl UK
Another beautifully produced book
003 SP 2003 cl UK
Superb in every respect
002 FG 2004 ¼cl USA

001 SP 2003 cl UK
Packaging bombproof / printing superb / improvements on 1926 text worth every penny!
