A glance at the following annexed
list of titles and authors will endorse
the claim that the publishers make
for it—that it is the most comprehensive,
choice, interesting, and by
far the most carefully selected series
of standard authors for world-wide
reading that has been produced by
any publishing house in any country, and that at prices
so cheap, and in a style so substantial and pleasing, as to
win for it millions of readers and the approval and
commendation, not only of the book trade throughout
the American continent, but of hundreds of thousands of
librarians, clergymen, educators and men of letters
interested in the dissemination of instructive, entertaining
and thoroughly wholesome reading matter for the masses.
