A propos de cet article

Cloth, gilt cover-titles, 4to, xxiii, 301 pp, ills. From the introduction: "This bibliographical catalogue contains detailed descriptions and photographic illustrations of Anthony Trollope's first editions published in America (the United States) from 1858 through 1884. There are fifty-eight major entries, from Doctor Thorne - Trollope's first work published in America - to An Old Man's Love, presented in chronological order. Important Canadian editions, as weil as later editions by American publishers that closely followed the initial appearances of some works, are described in the major entries. Some of Trollope's lesser works - stories, articles, and other miscellaneous writings - are described more briefly, in chronological sequence, in Appendix A. This work is intended to supplement Michael Sadleir's bibliography on Anthony Trollope's English éditions, which first appeared in 1928 and remains the standard work to date, because Sadleir had little data on American editions.The format of this chronological bibliography is as follows. For each entry, the following are documented: titlepage, binding appearance in all détails (followed by, as applicable, binding variant, secondary binding, and binding comparison), contents, illustrations (as applicable), and notes.The notes to an entry sometimes contain partial descriptions of certain editions of a work and summarize later impressions and often present condensed descriptions of other éditions of a work, such as those published in the Seaside Library which usually closely followed the publication of the fîrst American edition."
