Books from Areopagitica.

Berkeley: Peacock Press, 1965. Paperback. 32mo. Stiff grey wrappers, string tied. (Ca. 4pp, rectos only). Near fine. Item #11156

Charming near-miniature title, with colophon at rear noting a limitation of 550 copies. Brief excerpt from Milton's famed 1644 address, "Areopagitica; A speech of Mr. John Milton for the Liberty of Unlicenc'd Printing, to the Parlament of England," a spirited defense of freedom of speech. Very uncommon.
