The beauty of the edition is the beauty of proper workmanship and solid worth, the beauty of fitness alone. Nowhere is the least effort made to decorate the volumes externally or internally. They are perfectly printed from new plates that have been made in the best manner, and with the most accurate understanding of what is needed: and they are solidly bound, with absolutely plain black cloth covers, without relief of any kind, except such as is afforded by the paper label. It is a set of plain, solid, sensible volumes, made for use, and so made as to be comfortable in the using.-N. Y. Evening Post.

No other collection of novels in the world presents so varied, so rare, or so large an amount of excellent and entertaining literature. Each volume has been carefully selected; and so rigid has been the supervision of the list, that the admission of a work into the series has been, as it will continue to be, an ample guarantee of rightful claim to public favor, and of its entire suitableness for family reading.
