This reprint is an encyclopedic account of the Tauchnitz firm of publishers, famous for their output of Anglo-American books throughout the 19th and first part of the 20th centuries. The main series of books from 1841 to 1943 is described, comprising 5370 volumes representing 783 English and American authors. The research is based on the collections of 46 libraries and over 56,000 variant copies of editions are taken into account. The book lists numerous first editions of Dickens and other popular novelists, and some of the editions actually precede the recognised first editions of many of the works.

Tauchnitz International Editions in English, 1841-1955: A Bibliographical History

This Bibliography of Sir Walter Scott describes not only the variants in his novels and verse, as published in English during his lifetime, but extends to his lesser known activities as advocate and sheriff, antiquarian, biographer, editor, historian, reviewer, casual commentator from his Abbotsford estate, and constant contributor to the work of his friends and associates. Apart from what is essentially Scott, this bibliography further discloses his often anonymous reappearance in 164 anthologies and again, now indirectly, in countless printings deriving from his original work - in shabby chapbooks, grand suites of illustrations, operas, plays, and endless reams of sheet music. After 160 years, interest in Scott continues as strong as ever. With releases of major motion pictures based on his novels and new editions of his works being republished around the world, Sir Walter's ability to enthrall remains undiminished.
