<p>From Library Journal      Boiardo's long poetic account of the chivalric and magical adventures of the knight Orlando (Roland) stands at a crucial juncture between the chansons de geste and medieval Romance and the great Renaissance epics such as Ariosto's Orlando Furioso and Spenser's Faerie Queene. The publisher has done a service to both the scholar and the serious reader, providing a handsome bilingual edition of the Orlando Innamorato that features the first complete translation in English. While not always literal, translator Ross's efforts are vigorous, capturing much of the spirit of the original. He also includes a cogent introductory essay on Boiardo and his work.- T.L.
