From the earliest days of the Kelmscott press Morris
was working up to his masterpiece an ed. of Chaucer,
his favorite author. Work on this book continued
for 5 years. The Kelmscott Chaucer represents the climax
of the private press movement. The Chaucer is justly
considered one of the world's greatest books.
