With an Introduction by E. C. Stedman and Notes by Professor G. E. Woodberry.
Nearly half a century passed after the death of Poe before the appearance of the Stedman-Woodberry Edition of his works, which embodies in its editorial departments critical scholarship of the highest class. In this volume of Poe’s “Poems” the introduction and the notes treat not only of the more significant aspects of Poe’s genius as a poet, but his technical methods, and of scores of bibliographical and personal matters suggested by his verses. Entirely reset in larger type.

In Dickens’ London
By F. Hopkinson Smith
The rare versatility of an author who can transfer to paper his impressions of atmosphere as well in charcoal sketch as in charmingly told description has made this book an inspiration to the lover of Dickens and to the lover of London. The dusty old haunts of dusty old people, hid forever but for Dickens, are visited again and found little changed. Where modern things have crept in they are noticed with quick observation, keen humor, and that sympathy with the human which the author shares with the great Dickens himself.
Illustrated with 24 full-page illustrations from the author’s drawings in charcoal. $3.50 net; postage extra.
Robert Frank
By Sigurd Ibsen
Henry Ibsen’s only son is the author of this drama, which William Archer, the distinguished English critic, considers convincing proof that he possesses, “dramatic faculty in abundance.” Mr. Archer defines it as “a powerful and interesting play which claims attention on its own merits,” “eminently a play of today, or, rather, perhaps, of tomorrow.”
