THE WORKS OF THACKERAY
_Reprints of the First Editions, with all the Original
Illustrations, and with Facsimiles of Wrappers, etc._
Messrs. MACMILLAN & 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 is the Completest Edition of the
Author's Works that 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.
