Neuware - Originally published between 1909 and 1917 under the name 'Harvard Classics,' this stupendous 51-volume set-a collection of the greatest writings from literature, philosophy, history, and mythology-was assembled by American academic CHARLES WILLIAM ELIOT (1834-1926), Harvard University's longest-serving president. Also known as 'Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf,' it represented Eliot's belief that a basic liberal education could be gleaned by reading from an anthology of works that could fit on five feet of bookshelf.

They are the collective capstone on a bookshelf reading course unparalleled in comprehensiveness and authority. …
