These several editions of the Waverley Novels all possess the advantage of a good readable type, fine paper, and first-rate printing, and are afforded at a reasonable price. The illustrations are taken from the celebrated Abbotsford edition, (now out of print,) and are engraved in a very fine style. It is superfluous to commend these masterly productions of genius to the reading public. They are the model and standard of all subsequent writers of fiction, and for dramatic power they are unapproachable.
