Cambrfnge C BOSTON, NEW YORK, AND CHICAGO. JANUARY, 1899. NOTE The following Catalogue is designed to bring into an orderly group the authors for whom Houghton, Mifflin & Co. act as publishers. The brief biographical sketches have been prepared with great care, and are intended to supply that condensed information which a rea- sonable curiosity as to the personality of authors demands. The order of the authors is alphabetical; the order of the books under each author is in the main chronological, the latest publication being placed first, and the earliest last j but in a few instances, especially where a series of volumes is involved, this rule has been broken ; where two dates are given, it will be urtderstood that the later stands for a revision or reissue. The books named are in cloth binding, except where otherwise designated, as in paper-bound series ; but in almost all cases, in all in fact of what are known as standard books, the publications may be had in various styles of extra binding. It has been thought serviceable to set forth many of the publications in classified form. A special feature of the issues of this house is the grouping of books not upon a merely mechanical basis, but with reference to encyclopaedic and continuous methods. The several Libraries and Series thus will be found in alphabetical order at the close of the Catalogue, as well as the groups of anthologies,^ profes- sional books, and periodicals. A brief sketch of the history and organization of the house precedes the work. The publishers take this occasion to thank the authors, whose agents they are, for the courtesy with which they have supplied the information desired. It did not appear practicable to add the portraits of authors, — these will be found in large number in the Portrait Catalogue, — but in view of the long-continued and exclusive relations held by the house with the six great American authors who are everywhere recognized as the men of the classic period, a group of these is given as a frontispiece. 4 Park St., Boston, January, 1899.

Mr. Houghton was born in the little vil- lage of Sutton, Vermont, April 30, 1823. At the age of thirteen he became an apprentice in the office of the Burlington J^ree Press, and in the mechanical training there received he laid in part the foundation of his business success. A more important foundation was in the in- tellectual training upon which he afterward entered. An elder brother was at the time a student in the University of Vermont, and listening to his advice, the boy determined to acquire a collegiate education. At the age of nineteen he entered the same university with twelve and a half cents in his pocket, but with a substantial preparation and with a resource in his trade as a printer to which he turned from time to time as a means of support. Mr. Houghton's first purpose, like that of many college graduates of his day, was to take up teaching until he could decide upon his permanent vocation ; but failing to find a favorable opportunity, he took up the work of a reporter on the Boston Traveller. It was while he was engaged on the newspaper that the publication of a scholarly work by one of the publishing houses in Boston demanded a proof-reader trained in the classics, and the task came to Mr. Hough- ton. The renewal of his old art opened the way, and though at first reluctant, since in the eyes of most in those days a college educa- tion seemed thrown away on a printer, he resolved to turn to printing as his vocation, and in January, 1849, he joined Mr. Bolles, then of the firm of Freeman and Bolles, in establishing a printing office under the style of Bolles and Houghton. Mr. Freeman retained for a while IX A SKETCH OF THE FIRM OF his interest in the business, and until his death, at an advanced age, was wont to visit and congratulate the successful man who earlier had been his associate. The office was at first established on Remington Street in Cam- bridge, and the most important connection was that made with Messrs. Little, Brown and Company of Boston, then as now an eminent pub- lishing house, especially of law books. The moving spirit at that date was Mr. James Brown, a warm friend of the elder John Murray, from whom he named a son, who has succeeded him in business. The firm gave the young printer substantial encouragement, and Mr. Houghton, who was now by himself, became the tenant of Mr. Charles C. Little in a brick, domestic looking building on the banks of the Charles River. The building had formerly been used by the city of Cambridge as a house for the town poor, and stood almost in the open country. Mr. Houghton and Mr. Brown were desirous of giv- ing the new press a significant name, and tried various experiments till Mr. Brown said one day : " This press stands by the side of the Charles River ; why not call it The Riverside Press ? " and this most natural name was then given it, so that now the term Riverside has come to cover a thickly populated district and to be applied to various neighboring industries. The nature of Mr. Brown's business led to somewhat of a specializa- tion of Mr. Houghton's industry, and he gave great attention to the manufacture of law books. His familiarity with this form of profes- sional literature led him afterward, when he became a publisher on his own account, to engage actively in law-book publication. He had moreover as an intimate associate at the time, and one who was for many years a close adviser, his life-long friend the late Hon. Edmund H. Bennett. But the firm of Little, Brown and Company was also largely interested in works of standard literature, and was at this time carrying forward the series of British Poets, re-edited on this side of the water by Lowell, Child, and Norton, and Mr. Houghton was soon studying the problems of book-making in general literature and bringing to bear his double training as an artisan and a student. He extended his connection with publishing houses, especially allying himself with Messrs. Ticknor and Fields, then coming to the front as the publishers of the leading American authors. In a short time he had won a reputation for making books which preserved the tradi- tions of the great printers, and " Printed at The Riverside Press " became a trademark of value. As his printing business extended, Mr. Houghton gradually found himself acquiring an interest in the books which he printed, and he saw also the necessity of adding facilities for binding. He went to England in 1864, and induced skilled workmen to come to River- side and engage with him. The enlargement of facilities was made X HOUGHTON, MIFFLIN AND COMPANY necessary especially by the connection formed with Messrs. G. & C. Merriam and Company, of Springfield, the publishers of Webster's Dictionary, a work which under its revised form of The International Dictionary is still manufactured at Riverside. It became clear also to Mr. Houghton that, with the interest he was acquiring in important books, it was desirable to make a closer connection with a publisher, and in 1864 he formed a partnership with Mr. Melancthon M. Hurd, of New York, formerly of the firm of Sheldon and Company, and the new firm of Hurd and Houghton at once began the publication of law, standard, and miscellaneous books. The publishing proper was to be carried on in New York, while the manufacture of books for this firm as well as for others was to continue at Riverside under the name of H. O. Houghton and Company. II Under the impulse given to the business by the formation of the firm of Hurd and Houghton, several important enterprises were undertaken. Among these was the republication of Smith's Bible Dictionary, enlarged and revised by the eminent Biblical scholars Professor Horatio B. Hackett and Dr. Ezra Abbot. The rapid development of a special literature for the young led the firm to establish The Riverside Magazine for Young People, which was pub- lished for four years, 1867-187 1, under the editorship of Horace E. Scudder. The firm of Hurd and Houghton existed under the same name until 1878, but from time to time changes occurred in its per- sonnel. In 1866 Mr. Albert G. Houghton, an elder brother of the founder of the Press, was admitted, occupying himself mainly with the interests in New York. Not long after the establishment of The Riverside Magazine, Mr. George H. MifHin, a recent graduate of Har- vard College, came into the service of the house, and has had contin- uous connection with it ever since. In 1872 both he and Mr. Scud- der became members of the firm. Mr. Scudder retired after three years, at the expiration of his term of partnership, preferring to give his time more exclusively to literary pursuits, but has remained actively identified with the editorial department of the business. In 1873 the house bought The Atlantic Monthly. The gravitation of the business to Cambridge, since economy of management was facilitated by shipping direct from the Press and performing there most of the functions of publishing, was accelerated by the purchase of The Atlantic and by an important change which took place in 1878. Failing health led to the retirement from active service of Mr. Albert G. Houghton, and Mr. Hurd also for a similar cause wished to be relieved of business care. At the same XI A SKETCH OF THE FIRM OF time the house formed a consoHdation with James R. Osgood and Company, the successors to Ticknor and Fields. Mr. Osgood repre- sented this house in the new firm, and the style became Houghton, Osgood and Company. The immediate effect of this was to trans- form a well-equipped manufacturing concern with a modest list of publications into a large publishing house having on its catalogue the names of the great leaders of American literature. The premises in Boston formerly occupied by James R. Osgood and Company became the headquarters of the publishing department, and the books now bore the imprint of Boston and New York instead of New York and Cambridge. The firm as thus constituted continued for two years, when Mr. Osgood retired, and the style of the firm became, in 1880, Houghton, Mifflin and Company ; and, shortly after, the publishing headquarters in Boston were removed to 4 Park Street, and in New York to 1 1 East Seventeenth Street. Various changes in the personnel of the firm have occurred since that time. On the 25th of August, 1895, Mr. H. O. Houghton, Senior, the founder of the house, died, after a lingering illness which had compelled his gradual withdrawal from very active occupation. The style of the firm has, however, continued the same, and is constituted as at the time of his death, his interest still being represented in the business. Mr. Mifflin is senior partner, and has associated with him James Murray Kay, L. H. Valentine, Henry O. Houghton (son of the founder), Oscar R. Houghton and Albert F. Houghton (sons of Mr. Albert G. Houghton). For conven- ience in accounts, the manufacturing part of the business retains the original appellation of H. O. Houghton and Company, but the inter- ests of both sides of the house are identical. The most considerable and manifest part of the work done is at Riverside. At that place the books and periodicals are manufac- tured and stored,. and from it are shipped. The mailing department is there also, and the accounts are kept at the Press. The savings department of the business, which is in effect a savings bank for all connected with the firm in any capacity and in any of its establish- ments, is managed at Riverside ; and a Mutual Benefit Association is under the control of those engaged at the Press. The office at 4 Park Street, Boston, occupies two stories of what was formerly the Quincy mansion. It is the office especially of the publishing department, where are conducted the correspondence with authors and the details of advertising. The educational department, with a large force of clerks, is established in the main rooms ; the subscription department, dealing with the sale of libraries of stan- dard books, has its office here ; and in the story above are the edi- torial rooms, furnished with a serviceable library, the office of the cataloguers, and the publishing office of The Atlantic Monthly. XII HOUGHTON, MIFFLIN AND COMPANY In New York the offices of the firm are at 1 1 East Seventeenth Street, where they occupy a portion of a building which still discloses in the drawing-room, now filled with books and desks, the former use as a family residence. Two of the partners have their office here, and the various interests of the house are served, the depart- ment for the sale of standard libraries being especially active. In Chicago the firm has an office at 378-388 Wabash Avenue, where representatives of the house conduct the important business called for by a distributing centre in the great northwest, keeping them- selves especially in touch with the significant educational movements of that region. The London agents of the house are Messrs. A. P. Watt and Son at Hastings House, Norfolk Street, Strand, who place the publications of the house in the English and continental market, and aid in making connections with English authors. Ill The collection of books now on the catalogue has been formed by the direct relations of authors with the firm in the first instance, by the reissue under new form of standard works, and by the ab- sorption of other publishing houses. The most important acces- sion, as already stated, grew out of the consolidation with James R. Osgood and Company ; but at different times the firm became succes- sors to other houses which went out of business, as J. G. Gregory and Company, of New York, and Crocker and Brewster, and Ticknor and Company, of Boston. The Catalogue of Authors which follows this sketch gives the names of those writers now represented by the pub- lications of the firm, and after the catalogue will be found descriptions of the series of books which form important features in the industry of the house, and of the periodicals, but it will be convenient also to show in a rapid survey the main divisions into which the publications fall. I. STANDARD BOOKS Under this head may be included roughly all those works in the English language which have stood the test of time, and are accepted as having a recognized place in literature. Such, for instance, are the books included in the great group of British poets, numbering sixty-eight volumes ; Shakespeare, in six volumes, edited by the American scholar Richard Grant White ; Tennyson, in a great variety of forms, the scholarly Cambridge, the popular and beautiful illus- trated Household, the compact Cabinet, and the dignified Riverside, the last in six volumes, each of the others being in single volumes ; the works of De Quincey, as first collected in this country, in twelve XIII A SKETCH OF THE FIRM OF volumes ; the most complete edition, whether in England or in Amer- ica, of the writings of Charles Dickens, in thirty-two volumes, contain- ing the great original designs engraved on steel, a life and collection of letters, and a thorough equipment of dictionary, bibliographical notes and indexes ; a library edition of Thackeray's works, containing matter in no other collected edition, twenty-two volumes in allj the complete poetic and dramatic works of Robert Browning, in six vol- umes, as well as a compact edition, with annotations, in a single volume ; the complete poetical works of Shelley, in four volumes, thoroughly equipped with biographical sketch and annotations by George E. Woodberry ; the great edition of Bacon by Spedding, Ellis, and Heath, reproduced here by special arrangement with Mr. Sped- ding ; the writings of Anna Jameson, including a richly illustrated and revised edition of those relating to art, the matter being brought down to the date of 1895 ; a full set of the Waverley novels, in twenty-five volumes, accompanied by Lockhart's Life in three volumes, and Scott's Letters in two ; and the complete works of Macaulay. But rich as the list is in British literature of renown, the dis- tinction of the house is in its representation of American literature. The group of portraits which serves as a frontispiece to this catalogue will be recognized at once as standing for the great figures of the classic period of our literature. When we name Hawthorne, Emer- son, Longfellow, Whittier, Lowell, Holmes, Mrs. Stowe, and Thoreau, we leave but one or two of the great American authors unmentioned, and the complete writings of all the above writers are issued by Houghton, Mifflin and Company, and by that house alone. By long- continued relations with these authors, and after their death with their families and their representatives, the house has become thoroughly identified with them, and has acknowledged its trust by presenting the works of these writers in a great variety of forms, constantly aiming to meet the demands of the public by beautiful editions, by inexpensive ones, by editions suited for study, and by compilations. The Riverside Editions, so called, are noteworthy for their fullness and their equipment, and the Cambridge Editions of the poets, extending also into the whole domain of English poetry, stand not only for great care in manufacture, but for close attention to that edi- torial charge which provides an exact text, proper annotation, biblio- graphical matter, and thorough equipment of indexes. II. GENERAL LITERATURE Here, again, the attention of the house has been given especially to the enlargement of American literature. Its organized work has been more particularly in the direction of historical and biographical writing. The great Narrative and Critical History of America, edited XIV HOUGHTON, MIFFLIN AND COMPANY by Dr. Justin Winsor, the several series of American Statesmen, Amer- ican Men of Letters, and American Commonwealths, indicate how impor- tant a part this division of literature plays in the plans of the house ; and when one adds the series of works by Dr. John Fiske, and the writings of a large number of special students, it is clear how active a part is taken by the house in exploiting American and European history and biography. Literature also, in its poetic and fictitious form, is one of the great traditions of the house. Upon its catalogue may be found the poeti- cal writings, besides those of the elder American poets, of a long list of younger men and women, with Mr. Aldrich and Mr. Stedman to represent the connecting links between the old and the new. The strength of the house in popular fiction is shown by the fact that in addition to the names of many British writers of fiction and of such classic American names as Cooper, Hawthorne, Holmes, and Mrs. Stowe, the catalogue contains some eighty authors whose names would at once be recognized as famous and popular ; among these, to mention a few very much in the eye of the public, are Mrs. Eliza- beth Stuart Phelps Ward, Mr. F. Hopkinson Smith, Miss Sarah Orne Jewett, Mr. Gilbert Parker, Mrs. Kate Douglas Wiggin, Bret Harte, Mrs. Whitney, and Joel Chandler Harris. A further interesting field of literature, largely occupied by Hough- ton, MifHin and Company, is that which represents the enthusiasm of lovers of nature. The writings of Thoreau belong among the classics of our literature, but candidates for a like position may readily be found in the works of John Burroughs, which occupy ten volumes, Bradford Torrey, Frank Bolles, Olive Thorne Miller, Row- land E. Robinson, and others. And by a natural association one thinks of that masterly interpreter of the genius of Japan, Lafcadio Hearn. III. EDUCATIONAL BOOKS Although certain text-books of value are on the list, the chief at- tention in this department has been directed toward the introduction into schools of the classic literature already issued by the house in library form. The aim here has been to give the writings of Amer- ican and English authors, suitable for reading by persons of school age, in an inexpensive, handy form, and provided with helpful appa- ratus in the way of biographical sketches, maps, portraits, and notes. The Riverside Literature Series and Rolfe's Students' Series cover already more than a hundred and fifty titles, and each school year sees the issue of a number of books in these series. A special section might also be made of illustrated works, yet the policy of the house is rather to furnish illustrated editions of the XV A SKETCH OF THE FIRM OF writings of tlie authors for whom they publisli than to seek more directly for occasions to make holiday books in which the illustrations should be the supreme feature. One exception to this may be named in the. monumental work of designs to accompany The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyim, by Elihu Vedder. Great attention has been paid to the portraiture of authors, and prints from more than a hundred and fifty engraved plates have been issued, as well as a very large number furnished in special editions of classic works. Printers in all ages since the invention of their art have been wont to employ distinctive emblematic devices or trade-monograms. Before title-pages were introduced, and in some cases afterward, an inscrip- tion or " colophon " appeared on the last page of every book, con- taining the place or year of its publication, or both, and the name of the press at which it was manufactured. Dual shields appear on the excellent books published by the firm of Faust and Schoffer. An anchor embraced by a dolphin was the emblem of Aldus ; the anchor signifying stability or slowness, and the dolphin swiftness, the combination pre- senting symbolically the Aldine legend, Festina lente, — " Make haste slowly." The father of printing in the English language, William Cax- ton, decorated his books with a monogram, lodocus Badius, besides his initials, employed a wood-cut showing the interior of a printing- office, with a hand-press of the period. In relief upon a handsome window of stained glass, these devices of classic printers greet the visitor as he enters the Park Street office, and upon the same window appears the device adopted by the firm. The old firm of Hurd and Houghton used a monogram designed by Mrs. B. F. Stevens, the daughter of Mr. Whittingham, proprietor of the famous Chiswick Press, London, who designed most of the typographical orna- ments which give distinction to her father's printing office. When Mr. Elihu Vedder pub- lished with this firm his accompaniment to The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, he furnished for the volume a title-page ornament, representing a boy on the bank of a stream sailing paper boats. On a scroll was " The Riverside Press." The firm asked Mr. Vedder to repeat this de- vice in a form practicable for ordinary title- pages, and he did so, substituting the motto which had long been in use by the head of the firm. Tout Men ou rien, — " Do it well or not at all." This emblem began to be used in XVI HOUGHTON, MIFFLIN AND COMPANY 1885, but in the fall of that year Mr. Sidney L. Smith, whose decora- tive work is found in some of the most notable illustrated books, produced another design upon the same general theme, and the Vedder-Smith sketch is now familiar to the public on the books which Houghton, Mifflin and Company publish, either in its form as at first adopted, or as still later simplified by Mr. Bruce Rogers. Its spe- cial significance readily ap- pears when one considers that the printing-house which is identified with this firm took its name from its position on the banks of the Charles. The piper, who is charming his little paper boats that float on the stream and bear lighted candles, sits under the boughs of the tree of knowledge at sunrise, and is conveniently near a printing-press, which is the goal of the boats. XVII jg^J^3|^pV« 1 ki stliirlWnaiieB^ Supplement The Catalogue of Authors dated January, 1899, was intended to include the works of the authors named on Houghton, Mifflin & Company's list at that date.

Little, Brown & Co. began the issue of a series of volumes under the above title. They were mainly reprints of English editions, and in some cases the publishers simply bought sheets and bound them with their own title-pages. But all that were reprinted passed under the careful editorial supervision of the late Professor Francis J. Child, who himself contributed the series of English and Scottish Ballads, made the admirable Spenser, and wrote the life of Hood. He called in the aid of other competent editors. Lowell, for example, edited Keats, and wrote the life of Wordsworth, and Mr. Norton wrote the life of Coleridge. The series was afterward sold to Messrs. Ticknor & Fields, and later came upon the list of Houghton, Mifflin & Co., who added a Chaucer, edited by Mr. Arthur Oilman, and a Ben Jonson, edited by Mr. Scudder. They reissued the series in a fewer number of volumes by bringing two and sometimes three of the former volumes into a single one ; and the series is now in 68 volumes, crown 8vo, each ^1.50; the set, Jioo.oo. Steel portraits of the poets accompany the work. The list is as fol- lows : — Akenside and Eeattie, i vol. Milton and Marvell, 2 vols. Ballads, English and Scottish, 4 vols. Montgomery, 2 vols.

For this cause, great attention has been given to securing compactness of form and legibility. The page is double- columned, the type is new and clear, the paper is thin, but strong and opaque, and the binding is both durable and flexible. These points are especially observable in the volume devoted to Browning, where the entire contents of the Riverside edition in six volumes, together with his Essay on Shelley, and considerable editorial apparatus, have been packed into 1033 pp., and yet the book lies agreeably in the hand and is read with pleasure. A like study of condensation and completeness has been shown in the editing. The editor in each case has followed the most authori- tative text, and the proof has been read with scrupulous care. For the most part, a chronological order has been adopted. Introductions LIBRARIES AND SERIES 157 have been supplied giving the history of groups of poems, and prefa- tory notes give in compact form information regarding the origin and first appearance of the separate poems, drawn often from the letters of the poets themselves. Brief explanatory notes, glossaries, and other appliances follow the text ; to each volume is prefixed a suffi- ciently full biographical sketch ; and a list of the poems in their chronological order, and indexes of titles and first lines, serve to make the equipment complete. The best procurable portrait is engraved for frontispiece, and the vignette on the title-page is of the poet's home. Price, per volume, $2.00, with the exception of Browning, which is $3.00. The volumes thus far published have appeared in the following order : — Longfellow. By the Editor. Pp. xxii, 689. Whittier. By the Editor. Pp. xxii, 542. Browning. By the Editor. Pp. xviii, 1033.

This series of classic prose and poetical literature in the English tongue has been issued with special reference to the use of public and private schools, academies, and colleges. The numbers are therefore small and convenient in form, of about 100 pp. each, and being in paper covers are published at a low price. Most of the separate numbers can also be had in cloth, and in many instances two or even more numbers of common authorship or character are bound together. The series started with Evangeline, and a brief description of the initial number will indicate the characteristics of the entire series. A i62 LIBRARIES AND SERIES biographical sketch by the editor covers the whole course of the poet's career. In this case the sketch occupies 34 pp., but ordinarily the biographical sketch or other introduction is from four to twelve pages in length. Accompanying this is a brief account of the poet's home life by his daughter, Miss Alice M. Longfellow. An historical intro- duction follows narrating the facts on which the poem is based, and a critical essay gives the student an account of the origin of Evangeline and some insight into its form and metre, with reference to the litera- ture which has grown up about it. The poem is given in the author's approved text, and is accompanied by foot-notes, which have been pre- pared with great care. The editor's purpose has been to remove diffi- culties in the way of an understanding of the poem, but not to afford a substitute for a good dictionary ; to quicken an interest in the con- tents of the poem, but not to comment upon it. In brief, he has aimed to bring the reader close to the poem, not to interpose himself and his observations, or to usurp the function of the teacher. A Pronoun- cing Vocabulary at the close is for the convenience of teacher and pupil. The number is further enriched by a portrait of Longfellow, views of his birthplace and Cambridge home, and a map of Acadia. The series, begun with Evangeline in 1883, has grown till it includes a very large part of the prose and poetry of the classic American authors adapted to schoolroom use, plays of Shakespeare, and a num- ber of the standard poems, essays, and narratives of English, Scotch, and Irish writers. It includes also translations from Hans Andersen, the Brothers Grimm, and the classic writers of antiquity. It embraces in its range literature for beginners and literature studied in the uni- versity, but always and exclusively it offers literature, and not what has been ingeniously and half-contemptuously termed " reading mat- ter." The purpose has been to give wholes and not fragments ; the text has been chosen with the greatest care, and a just mean studied between a meagre and an excessive annotation. Maps, portraits, and other pictures are introduced, not for ornament but for genuine illus- tration. The editor has never lost out of sight the aim of the series, which is to stimulate an interest in great literature, and to make read- ing first of all a delight and not a task. Except in those cases where a special editor is named, the numbers have been prepared by the general editor. I. Longfellow's Evangeline.

A sketch gives the outline of the author's career. Being a Boy. By Charles Dudley Warner. With Biographical Sketch, Portrait, and other Illustrations. 255 pp., 60 cents, net.

Benjamin Franklin wrote many letters and scientific treatises, but his Autobio- graphy will outlive them all, for it will continue to be read with delight by all Amer- icans, when his other writings are read only by students of history or science. It is one of the world's great books, in which a great man tells simply and easily the story of his own life. Franklin brought the story down to his fiftieth year. The remainder is told chiefly through his letters. A chronological table gives a survey of the events in his life, and the great historical events occurring in his lifetime. An introductory note gives the history of this famous book. German Household Tales. By Jacob and Wilhelra Grimm. Told again in English. With an Introduction. 252 pp., 50 cents, net. The German collection is a large one, and much of it is of interest only to stu- dents of folk-lore. The forty stories here selected are the best, and most sure to be liked by the young. Some of them are curiously like well-known English house- hold tales. They are all told in a simple, direct English which makes it possible for young people of seven or eight to read them. Grandfather's Chair, or True Stories from New England History ; and Biographical Stories. By Nathaniel Hawthorne. With a Biographical Sketch, Portrait, Notes, and Illustrations. Crown 8vo, 332 pp., 70 cents, net. This is one of the most delightful books for beginners in history in our literature.

In addition also to Grandfather's Chair, the volume contains half a dozen biographical stories by Hawthorne in the same vein. Grandmother's Story of Bunker Hill Battle, and Other Verse and Prose. By Oliver Wendell Holmes. With a Biographical Sketch, Notes, Por- trait, and Illustrations. 190 pp., 50 cents, net. Gulliver's Travels. The Voyages to Lilliput and Brobdingnag. By Jonathan Swift. With Introductory Sketch, Notes, Portrait, and two Maps. 193 pp., 50 cents, net. These famous Voyages give one the entertainment caused by looking first through one end, then tlirough the other, of a spy-glass, and the glass is always turned on men and women, so that we see them first as pygmies, and afterward as giants. The Introductory Sketch gives an account of Dean Swift and his writings, and there are two curiously fanciful maps copied from an early edition. Holland, Brave Little, and What She Taught Us. By William Elliot Griffis. With a Map and four Illustrations. 266 pp., 60 cents, net. A rapid survey of the development of Holland, with special reference to the part which the country has played in the struggle for constitutional liberty, and to the association of Holland with the United States of America. House of the Seven Gables, The. By Nathaniel Hawthorne. With Intro- ductory Sketch, Picture of Hawthorne's Birthplace, and Portrait. Crown 8vo, 384 pp., 70 cents, net. 172 LIBRARIES AND SERIES This romance is instinct with a feeling for old Salem, and it embodies some of Hawthorne's most graceful fancies, as in the chapter entitled The Pyncheon Gar- den. The Introductory Sketch gives an outline of Hawthorne's career. IvANHOE. By Sir Walter Scott. With a Biographical Sketch and Notes, a Por- trait and other Illustrations. Crown 8vo, 529 pp., 70 cents, 7iet. One of the great Waverley novels. It is hard to say which is the most popular of Scott's novels. Every reader has his favorite, but the fact that Ivanhoe has been selected as a book to be read by students preparing for college shows the estimate in which it is held by teachers. Japanese Interior, A. By Alice Mabel Bacon. With Biographical Sketch. 294 pp., 60 cents, net. Miss Bacon was for some time an American teacher in a school in Japan to which daughters of the nobility were sent. Her own life and her acquaintance gave her exceptional opportunities for seeing the inside of houses and the private life of the Japanese, and in this volume she gives a clear account of her observation and experience. Lady of the Lake, The. By Sir Walter Scott. With a Sketch of Scott's Life, and thirty-three Illustrations. 275 pp., 60 cents, net. This poem by Scott is almost always the first one to be read when Scott is taken up, and the picturesqueness, movement, and melody of the verse make it one of the last to fade from the memory. The sketch of the poet's lite takes special cognizance of the poetic side of his nature, and many of the illustrations are careful studies from the scenes of the poem. Last of the Mohicans, The. By James Fenimore Cooper. With an Introduc- tion by Susan Fenimore Cooper, Biographical Sketch, Notes, Pronouncing Vo- cabulary, Portrait, and two other Illustrations. Crown 8vo, 471 pp., 70 cents, net. This is one of the most popular of Cooper's Leather-Stocking Tales.

Miss Susan Fenimore Cooper, daughter of the novelist, gives an interesting account of the growth of this story. LiLLiPUT AND Brobdingnag, The VOYAGES TO. See Gulliver's Travels.

With Introductory Sketch and Portrait. 280 pp., 60 cents, net. Miss Larcom has here told the story of her early life, when as a country girl she entered the mills at Lowell, Massachusetts, and she has drawn a picture of New England in the middle of the century as she knew it, scarcely to be found in any other book. The narrative is a delightful bit of autobiography, and has a charm both poetic and personal. Pilgrim's Progress, The. By John Bunyan. With an Introduction, Notes, and Portrait. Edited by William Vaughn Moody, A. M., Instructor in English and Rhetoric in the University of Chicago, Chicago, 111. 218 pp., 50 cents, net. This is the famous first part of the great classic. The editor has shown clearly how interesting and valuable the book is as an illustration of English life in the Puritan period, and how masterly it is as a piece of English idiomatic prose. Bun- yan interprets the homely England of his day as Milton did the English state and the scholar's attitude. It would be a mistake to regard the book as exclusively religious. It would be a mistake also to deny its religious inspiration. Polly Oliver's Problem. By Kate Douglas Wiggin. With Introductory Sketch, Portrait, and Illustrations. 230 pp., 60 cents, net. A story for girls, showing how a girl in straitened circumstances bravely worked out the problem of self-support. Rab and his Friends ; and Other Dogs and Men. By Dr. John Brown.

Robinson Crusoe. By Daniel Defoe. With an Introductory Sketch and Por- trait of the Author, a Map, and Explanatory Notes. 409 pp., 60 cents, net. The first part of Robinson Crusoe is here given entire, and this is the part which the world knows as Robinson Crusoe. In the Introductory Sketch, the editor, besides giving an account of Defoe's career, shows the reason why this book has been received by readers old and young as a work of genius, when almost the whole of the great mass of Defoe's writing has been forgotten. A map enables one to trace Robinson Crusoe's imaginary voyagings, and to place the island near the dis- puted boundary of Venezuela. Shakespeare, Tales from. By Charles and Mary Lamb. With an Introduc- tory Sketch and Portraits of the Authors. 324 pp., 60 cents, net. There is a story behind every great play, and it is only after one has got at the story that one thoroughly understands and enjoys the play. Charles and Mary Lamb were themselves delightful writers, and to read their Tales from Shakespeare is not only to have a capital introduction to the great dramatist's works, but to hear fine stories finely told. This volume contains, besides, an account of the brother and sister, whose life together is one of the most touching tales in English literature. Shakespeare's Julius CjEsar and As You Like It. With Introductions and Notes. 224 pp., 50 cents, net.

By George Eliot. With an In- troduction and a Portrait. 251 pp., 50 cents, net.

Stories and Poems for Children. By Celia Thaxter. With Biographical Sketch and Portrait. 271 pp., 60 cents, net. Mrs. Thaxter's girlhood in her isolated home on the Isles of Shoals, and her life there on her return in maturity, gave her material which she used with power and beauty in her verse and prose.

With an Introductory Sketch, two Portraits, and six other Illustrations. 390 pp., 60 cents, net. Tom Brown at Rugby is the popular name by which this book is known. It is perhaps the best-read story of schoolboy life in the English language. Rugby was the English school presided over by Dr. Thomas Arnold, and a portrait of Arnold is given. The Introductory Sketch gives an account of Arnold and Rugby, of Thomas Hughes, the " Old Boy" who wrote the book, and mentions Frederic Deni- son Maurice, who had a great influence over Hughes. The volume also contains a portrait of Hughes. Two Years Before the Mast. By Richard Henry Dana, Jr. With Biographi- cal Sketch and Portrait. Crown 8vo, 480 pp., 70 cents, net. As a frontispiece to this book, there is a portrait of the author when he took his famous voyage just after leaving college. iiJut great as Dana was as a lawyer, ora- tor, and statesman, he lives chiefly in the memory of men as the narrator of a voy- age round Cape Horn to San Francisco before the discovery of gold. The days of such exploits seem gone by, but this book remains as c literary record, and will always be thus remembered. Uncle Tom's Cabin ; or, Life among the Lowly. By Harriet Beecher Stowe.

With Biographical Sketch, Portrait of the Author, and four Maps. 214 pp., 60 cents, net. Dr. John Fiske is the most eminent of living American historians. His large his- tories are read eagerly, as he adds volume to volume, and in time it is hoped that he will cover the whole course of American history. This small book contains in a nutshell the meat of a great book. It is a clear narrative, and, what is quite as important, it gives the why and wherefore of the Revolution, and explains how one event led to another. It contains also suggestions for collateral reading, and a bio- graphical sketch which gives some notion of the author's training as a scholar and author. Washington, George. An Llistorical Biography. By Horace E. Scudder. With four Illustrations. 253 pp., 60 cents, net. Within a brief compass Mr. Scudder has attempted to give the narrative of Washington's life, and to show that he was a living, breathing man, and not, as some seem to think him, a marble statue. He calls his book an historical biography because he has tried to show the figure in its relation to the great events of Ameri- can history in which it was set.

The origin of The Atlantic forms the subject of a chapter in Ameri- can literature which has often been written. The magazine was established, not primarily as a commercial enterprise, but that a group of men and women who had moral earnestness and literary power might have an organ which should stand for the best impulses in American life, and marshal the literary forces of the country. The first editor of the magazine, James Russell Lowell, stamped his own character at once on the periodical. His acute literary conscience and his enthusiasm for great reforms gave assurance that the maga- zine would show the best literary art and bring to the front the wor- thiest material for thought and feeling. The first publishers of the magazine were Messrs. Phillips, Samp- son & Co., of Boston ; and their literary adviser, the late Francis H. Underwood, was largely concerned in organizing the magazine and getting it on its feet. Some of the incidents connected with the found- ing have been recorded by Mr John T. Trowbridge, a contributor to the first number, in his article written after Mr. Underwood's death, and published in The Atlantic for January, 1895, under the title The Author of Quabbin. Mr. Lowell was at the time a professor in Har- vard College, and he named as an indispensable aid in giving char- acter to the work Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, known then as a felicitous poet, an agreeable lecturer, and a brilliant conversationalist. Dr. Holmes began his Autocrat of the JBreakfast-Table in the first number, which was issued in November, 1857, and at once gave the magazine a distinct reputation through the introduction of what was almost a new variety of literary composition. He continued to con- tribute to the magazine down to the year of his death. The steadfast- ness of the old contributors to the magazine is remarkable. Of the contributors to the first number two are now (1899) still living — Professor Charles Eliot Norton and Mr. John T. Trowbridge. Mr. Norton wrote in the first number on the Art Exhibition, then attract- ing great attention in Manchester, England, and he had an article on Rudyard Kipling's poetry in the number for January, 1897, the vol- umes between these dates containing about fifty papers from his pen, including important Dante studies. Mr. Trowbridge, who had a story in the first number, contributed more than sixty poems, tales, and essays before that in which he gave his pleasant reminiscences of the beginning of the magazine. Perhaps nothing so pointedly indi- cates the steadfastness of the magazine to its early ideas as the fact that Mr. Lowell invited the great historian Parkman to tell the story i86 THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY of the Capture of Louisbourg, and thirty-three years later Dr. Parkman found it natural to send this study to the editor of Tlie Atlantic of that day. Dr. Parkman was one of the distinguished company of authors who early made the magazine the vehicle for their writings. In the very first number, besides the writers already named, appeared Emerson with five poems, Mrs. Stowe with a story. Motley with his Florentine Mosaics, William H. Prescott with an historical paper, Longfellow with a poem, — Santa Filomena, — and Lowell himself with two poems and a caicserie. Colonel Higginson and Rev. Edward Everett Hale, both frequent contributors ever since, made their appearance in the magazine in its first year. Four volumes, covering two years and two months, were issued by the house of Phillips, Sampson & Co., when the death successively of Mr. Phillips and Mr. Sampson was followed by a dissolution of this firm, and the magazine passed into the hands of Messrs. Ticknor & Fields. Mr. Lowell continued to conduct it for a few months longer, when he resigned the editorship to one of the members of the firm, Mr. James T. Fields, but continued his close connection with the magazine as contributor until his death. The house of Ticknor & Fields was the leading house in the country in the publication of literature proper, especially that of American origin, and under the skillful management of Mr. Fields the magazine drew to itself a large number of the best writers of the day, welcoming also the newcomers. Mr. Aldrich and Mr. Howells early became contributors, and Mr. John Fiske, Mr. Burroughs, and Bret Harte were added about the same time. Of the older writers, the most celebrated, besides those already named, were Hawthorne, Thoreau, Bryant, and among foreign writers Robert Browning and Sainte-Beuve. In 1866 Mr. Fields associated with himself Mr. William Dean Howells, who had lately returned from Venice, and had already been a contributor ; and from this time on till his connection with the maga- zine was discontinued by his resignation from the editorship, Mr. Howells was a constant writer, his novels, sketches, poems, and criti- cisms probably exceeding in amount that of any other contributor up to this time. In 1871 Mr. Howells became sole editor, Mr. Fields retiring at that time from the firm. The magazine continued the property of the successive firms of Ticknor & Fields, Fields, Osgood & Co., and James R. Osgood & Co. until the close of 1873, when it passed into the hands of Messrs. H. O. Houghton & Co., of the Riverside Press, Hurd & Houghton of New York, and has continued in the same hands, under changes of firm names, since that date. Mr. Howells continued to edit the magazine, having for a while as assistant Mr. George Parsons Lathrop, until the spring of 1880, when he was succeeded by Mr. Thomas Bailey Aldrich. Mr. Aldrich was followed in the spring of 1890 by Mr. Horace E. Scudder ; in the spring of 1896 Mr. Walter H. Page, formerly editor of The Forum, New York, became associate editor, and in the summer of 1898, on the retirement of Mr. Scudder," he became sole editor. The Atlantic has never changed its form to any considerable extent. The early numbers carried on the cover a vignette of John Winthrop, the first governor of Massachusetts Bay ; but upon the outbreak of the THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY 187 war for the Union the American flag was substituted for this portrait, and after the close of the war the contents of the number occupied the same place. In 1898, when the war with Spain broke out, the flag was again .raised on the cover, and lowered only when the pro- tocol was signed. From time to time, especially since the magazine came under the care of Mr. H. O. Houghton, improvements have been made in typography, paper, and binding ; the display of the con- tents also has been made more clear, but the size and color of the cover and general air of the magazine have been preserved. The articles at first were not signed, the publishers did not publicly announce them, and the table of contents accompanying each volume did not contain the names of authors annexed to their several contri- butions. This last practice was begun in the ninth volume, and at the beginning of the twenty-sixth the present custom was adopted of signing each article with the author's name ; the practice continued, however, of withholding signatures from reviews and articles in departments. When the first general index was published in 1877, and especially when the second comprehensive index in 1889 was pre- pared, pains was taken to record the authors' names of all unsigned articles of every description save one. In the first number Mr. Lowell introduced a department of a some- what personal order, called The Round Table, but he probably took alarm at the prospect of having to keep it up with his own writing, and he did not repeat the experiment. In 1872, shortly after coming into office as sole editor, Mr. Howells organized a group of depart- ments, covering literature, science, art, politics, music, and subse- quently education ; he had the special cooperation of Mr. Thomas Sergeant Perry in French and German Literature, Mr. John Fiske in Science, Mr. William Foster Apthorp in Music, and Mr. Arthur George Sedgwick in Politics. These departments were discontinued in 1877. For a few numbers, also, in 1876 and 1877, the experiment was tried of giving original music accompanying original songs. In 1877 Mr. Howells introduced The Contributors' Club. He had from time to time received sprightly letters from contributors and others, sometimes containing good-humored criticism of the contents of the magazine, and as a frugal editor he disliked to see so much good " copy " wasted ; accordingly, he began making use of excerpts from the letters, but the club quickly passed beyond this simple function, and became the vehicle for light table talk on a variety of themes by a number of persons. One article in the club would lead to another, and the shelter afforded by the anonymous nature of the contributions led to much free speech. Perhaps no one writer contributed so many articles which provoked other articles as the late E. R. Sill. The authorship of articles in the club is not disclosed in the otherwise full Atlantic Index. In 1896 another department was added and resorted to irregularly, under the name Men and Letters, designed to give opportunity for brief signed articles on authors and literary topics, but not formal reviews of books. Reviews of books have formed a special feature from the outset, and a reference to the Index will disclose the fact that besides the editors, a number of the foremost critics in the country have been engaged in this work. In 1880 the reviews of current literature, which i88 THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY formerly had been in a department by themselves, were made regular, though still unsigned articles at the close of each number, the prac- tice being adopted of grouping kindred works, when practicable, in a single article. Of late there have been frequent departures from this practice, and many reviews have been signed, especially when they have been large studies of special subjects or authors. In 1879 ■'^''• Howells added to the regular reviews a summary of current publica- tions, with rapid comments, under the title of Books of the Month. This department in 189 1 was renamed Comment on New Books, and was continued until the spring of 1897, when the great increase in special book journals and the enormous multiplication of literature induced the conductors to abandon the Comment as a small-type department. The line which stands on the cover of the magazine below the title indicates briefly the scope of The Atlantic and the purpose it has always held. It is above all devoted to literature. Not only is the subject of literature itself constantly considered, but what is more to the point, the magazine contains works of literary art, and it aims at the best literary form in all its articles. The lasting contributions to American literature which had their first appearance in The Atlantic cannot readily be reckoned. In poetry it has had the honor to print for the first time a large number of poems by Emerson, Longfellow, Bryant, Whittier, Lowell, Holmes, Bayard Taylor, Stedman, Aldrich, Howells, T. W. Parsons, Fawcett, Alice Cary, Helen Hunt, to say nothing of younger writers, and it has always given hospitality to new names, making the hospitality of special worth by the care with which it has guarded against the admission of the commonplace. In fiction it has had a series of novels which are among the books that have not been pushed aside by temporary fashion. It includes stories by Hawthorne, Mrs. Stowe, Holmes, Howells, Henry James, Aldrich, Bret Harte, E. E. Hale, A. S. Hardy, Thomas Hardy, Crawford, Charles Egbert Craddock, Mrs. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward, Stock- ton, Miss Jewett, Gilbert Parker, Mrs. Wiggin, Mrs. Catherwood, Mrs. Deland, Paul Leicester Ford, and F. Hopkinson Smith. One field of literature it has occupied with many delightful articles, that of per- sonal reminiscences. Mrs. Kemble published here her Old Woman's Gossip, Dr. Edward Everett Hale his A New England Boyhood, Dr. George Birkbeck Hill A Talk over Autographs, Mrs. Lathrop Some Memories of Hawthorne, Mr. Fields Our Whispering Gallery, later named Yesterdays with Authors, Simon Newcomb his Reminiscences of an Astronomer, Colonel Higginson his Cheerful Yesterdays, Prince Kropotkin his Autobiography, and Mrs. Julia Ward Howe her Remi- niscences. As a special exponent of American politics and history, The Atlantic has never lost sight either of the foundations of national life or of the great questions of current interest. Before and during the war for the union it had trenchant political papers by Lowell and others, and it published the second series of Lowell's masterly Biglow Papers. Mr. Parton in his biography of Jefferson, Dr. Parkman in his studies in colonial history, and Dr. John Fiske in a great variety of historical papers, afterward gathered into his several books, are a few of the contributors in this field. A quarter of a century after the war, there THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY 189 appeared three illuminating papers summing up the consciousness of the three great sections during that war : Professor Gildersleeve's The Creed of the New South, Professor Shaler's The Border State Men of the Civil War, and General Cox's Why the Men of '61 fought for the Union. The war with Spain and the problems growing out of it have given occasion for important papers by James Bryce, Ira N. Hollis, Richard Olney, Henry Charles Lea, Carl Schurz, David Starr Jordan, and Benjamin Kidd. The biographical side of history has been made especially prominent in recent years, as may be seen from such notable papers as Carl Schurz's Abraham Lincoln, James C. Carter's Mr. Tilden, Professor Palmer's Evangelinus Apostolides Sophocles, Dr. Royce's Fremont, Captain Mahan's series of the Com- panions of Nelson, John C. Ropes's General Sherman, Dr. Allen's Phillips Brooks, J. N. Denison's General Armstrong, Senator Dawes's Recollections of Stanton, Fiske and Winsor on Parkman. The series by Mr. Godkin of studies in recent democracy is but one of the many indications that The Atlantic is earnestly desirous of grappling with present problems. The paper by Mr. Woodrow Wilson on President Cleveland, that by Dr. John Fiske on Arbitra- tion, and that by President Eliot on Five American Contributions to Civilization, to mention a few only of the later papers, intimate the policy of the magazine to treat politics in a large way. By the general term " politics " it understands all the functions of the State, and, especially of recent years, it has given unremitted attention to movements in education. It heralded some of the great reforms by papers from Presidents Eliot, G. Stanley Hall, and others ; it has given editorial consideration to the study of English both in school and college ; in the winter of 1896 it set on foot a broad inquiry into the public school system throughout the United States ; and it brings before the public the important philosophical observations of Profes- sors Miinsterberg and William James. It has lately occupied itself with some of the important questions springing out of the improvement of town and country life in parks and reservations, and it seeks both to record progress and to point the way. In connection with this gen- eral subject, it has published some remarkable papers by John Muir. In brief, The Atlantic aims at representing the interests of culti- vated Americans who are thoroughly concerned in the development of the higher life of the nation, and wish to see great subjects treated in a great way ; who also ask in their magazine a satisfaction of their demand for pure literature. The Atlantic therefore preserves a bal- ance between that literature which is charged with the task of inform- ing and stimulating, and that which appeals to the imagination and a refined taste. It is neither a miscellany nor an organ, but combines the prominent features of the political, historical, and sociological review, the critical and scholarly journal, and the vehicle for creative literature.
