Review

"It is more than seventy years since Henry Ollion expressed the hope that one day England would give Locke an edition of his letters worthy of the philosopher and his country. Here at last we have it."--Keith Thomas in The English Historical Review "Superb...Taken singly the letters range from the strictly ephemeral to the philosophically or biographically fascinating. Taken en bloc they provide a thickly-textured representation of Locke's physical, social, and intellectual environment."--The Review of Metaphysics "It is more than seventy years since Henry Ollion expressed the hope that one day England would give Locke an edition of his letters worthy of the philosopher and his country.
