THE
Nineteenth Century Classics
Edited by Clement K. Shorter.
CROWN 8vo, ART CANVAS GILT. 2s. 6d.
Throughout the whole history of English literature there is no period which impresses one with its variety and helpfulness in any way comparable to the first half of the nineteenth century. No period certainly has produced so many books which it is essential for our own age to read. The idea of "The Nineteenth Century Classics" is to place these permanent treasures of the century before the public in an attractive and serviceable form. Each volume is beautifully printed on fine paper, well bound, with photogravure frontispiece.
