THE
WORKS OF THACKERAY
Reprints of the First Editions, with all the Original Illustrations, and with Facsimiles of Wrappers, etc.
Messrs. macmillian & co., Limited, beg leave to invite the attention of book buyers to the Edition of the works of thackeray in their Three-and-Sixpenny Library, which, when finished, will be the Completest Edition of the Author's Works which has been placed on the market.
The Publishers have been fortunate in securing the services of Mr. lewis melville, the well-known Thackeray Expert. With his assistance they have been able to include in this Edition a great number of scattered pieces from Thackeray's pen, and illustrations from his pencil which have not hitherto been contained in any collected edition of the works. Mr. Melville has read all the sheets as they passed through the press, and collated them carefully with the original editions. He has also provided Bibliographical Introductions and occasional Footnotes.
