The publishers believe that the time has arrived when the public in America will support a handsomely printed edition of the standard works in English literature. Starting with this belief, they have completed their plans for "The Bookman Classics," a series destined to embrace the principal examples of English prose and verse, in pure literature which have successfully stood the test of time.

By printing very large editions, the publishers will be able to offer books that are equal in beauty to many "Editions de Luxe," at a price only a little higher than the cheaply printed and badly made 12mos now on the market. The volumes will be typographically all that the University Press can make them, and will contain ornamental titles, marginal decorations, especially designed for each book, etc., etc. They will be printed throughout in two colors, on deckle-edged Mittineague paper, with frontispiece in color, and will be well and handsomely bound.

Size, 12mo. Price, $1.50 each
