Points about THE HOME UNIVERSITY LIBRARY
Every volume is absolutely new, and specially written for the Library. There are no reprints.
Every volume is sold separately. Each has illustrations where needed, and contains a Bibliography as an aid to further study.
Every volume is written by a recognized authority on its subject, and the Library is published under the direction of four eminent Anglo-Saxon scholars—Gilbert Murray, of Oxford; H.A.L. Fisher, of Oxford; J. Arthur Thomson, of Aberdeen; and Prof. W.T. Brewster, of Columbia.
Every subject is of living and permanent interest. These books tell whatever is most important and interesting about their subjects.
Each volume is complete and independent; but the series has been carefully planned as a whole to form a comprehensive library of modern knowledge covering the chief subjects in History and Geography, Literature and Art, Science, Social Science, Philosophy, and Religion. An order for any volume will insure receiving announcements of future issues.
