  • Not the First Quarto.

    Listed as the First Quarto, this actually is the SECOND Quarto of Hamlet. There are significant differences, especially if you're studying the different editions as I am. I already have the Second Quarto, so this was a useless purchase. However, it's a good edition for most people to study as it has most of what is the "complete" Hamlet and the notes and annotations are good. It just isn't at all what it was advertised as.
