THE GADSHILL EDITION.

EDITED, WITH INTRODUCTIONS AND NOTES, BY ANDREW LANG,

In 36 volumes. Square crown 8vo. Red cloth. Price, per volume, 65.

HIS Edition of DICKENS'S WORKS is the most elaborate and handsome that

have not appeared in any previous collected edition of Dickens's Works, and is printed on Special Paper from New Type, and bound in scarlet cloth with gilt tops. The Original Illustrations, inseparably associated with Dickens's Writings, by SEYMOUR, HABLOT K. BROWNE, CRUIKSHANK, WALKER, LANDSEER, MACLISE, LEECH, MARCUS STONE, CATTERMOLE, BARNARD, LUKE FILDES, are all printed from an unused Set of Duplicate Plates in the possession of the Publishers, or from Plates re-engraved for this Edition. In some instances, where the Illustrations were not of uniform merit, fresh ones have been drawn to take their place by CHARLES GREEN, MAURICE GREIFFENHAGEN, HARRY FURNISS, F. H. TOWNSEND, A. JULES GOODMAN, etc., and are reproduced in Photogravure.

Mr. ANDREW LANG contributes Introductions and Notes to each Work, and a GENERAL ESSAY ON THE WORKS OF CHARLES DICKENS, which appears in REPRINTED PIECES-the last volume.

This is a handsome and dignified Library Edition, with biographical introductions giving the history of each book and its place in Dickens's life. By ARTHUR WAugh. These introductions are not technical or bibliographical; they aim at brevity and the narrative note; telling a story rather than arraying documents. No attempt is made at superfluous criticism; the biographical element is paramount; and it is hoped that the edition will present a clear and interesting story of the literary life of Dickens, no less than a worthy collection of his masterpieces.

The last volume, "COLLECTED PAPERS," contains many scattered writings of Charles Dickens not hitherto included in any Edition of his Works, together with a Complete Series of the Prefaces which he prefixed to all Editions published during his Lifetime.

The edition is printed on large crown octavo, on a specially-made, opaque, but light paper.

The illustrations are specially reproduced for this edition from the plates of the original editions, new blocks having been made for the purpose. They include all the originals by HABLOT K. BROWNE (" Phiz "), CRUIKSHANK, SEYMOUR, WALKER, LANDSEER, MACLISE, LEECH, MARCUS Stone, George Cattermole, LUKE FILDES, and others.
