Illustrated by
Pauline Baynes.
As the title suggests, this oversized volume contains the complete texts of all seven books about Narnia, arranged in a double-column layout with a different colored border for each tale. Baynes's original line drawings, hand-tinted by the artist, are interspersed throughout. Although the size and weight of the compendium are daunting, this is a handsome edition of the classic series.
