Complete Edgar Allan Poe
I want to buy a single-volume hardcover edition of all the writings of Poe. But there are so many. I'm looking for the most complete and the most high-quality.
I've picked these two as potentially the best ones, but maybe I'm wrong.
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0785814531/
And
http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Boo...66196035&itm=2
Amazon also has a nice-looking "Unabridged" Leatherbound volume, but it's out of print, sadly.
So which should I go with? Maybe there's a better one that I'm missing...

I've looked through the bottom choice at a B&N store, and it seems to be excelent. I can't say anything about your top choice though. I've never had a chance to check it out.

I have the top choice, as a matter of fact, I think I got it for $6 at one of Borders' clearance sales. Excellent choice, although I haven't gotten a chance to get really deep into it yet.

I have a single volume softcover edition of his Complete Works. It's very nice, but......hell, I don't even know where it is! In one of my rubbermaid boxes, I assume, but I'm not entirely sure.
For me, the downside of those anthology books is that they're so damn awkward. and if I can't just pick up a book and go I usually abandon it eventually.

Once upon a midnight dreary
While I ponder weak and weary
over many quaint and curious posts of dvdtalk forum lore
While I nodded nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping
As of someone furiously rapping, rapping outside my bedroom door
Tis 50 cent I muttered, rapping outside my bedroom door
Looking for a candy shop and nothing more
