A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Stack Annex No Christmas story has gained such universal regard as Mr. Dickens s Christmas Carol. The frequency with which the author has lately read that story to delighted audiences in A merica, as well as in England, while widely extending its popularity, has greatly strengthened a true appreciation of it. Mr. Dickens s American Publishers therefore believe that a new edition, giving adequate pictorial expression to the various characters which the Carol portrays, will address itself to a large circle of the best book-lovers; and they hope that this may prove such an edition. The drawings have been expressly made from new studies, by Mr. Eytinge, whose reputation as an illustrator of Mr. Dickens sideals has been so well established by the designs that accompany the Diamond Edition. The engraving, by Mr. A nthony, and the printing, by the University Press, have been done with a skill and delicacy which may be trusted to commend them fully to the public estimation.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
