Reprint of first edition. Part of a series: the volumes (including Fort Amity and The Adventures of Harry Revel) in this series. The series was publ…ished from c. 1920 until at least 1959 by J. M. Dent & Sons Ltd. of London and Toronto and co-published by E. P. Dutton of New York. J. M. Dent's address in 1937 was 10-13 Bedford Street, London W.C.2. and in 1954 was Aldine House, Bedford House, London. In 1937 the volumes books in this series were being printed at The Temple Press, Letchworth, Herts., England, and in 1954 they were being printed at: The Aldine House, Letchworth, Herts. Each volume was a small-sized cloth-bound hardcover book (approximately 15cm tall x 11cm wide).

The cloth binding were lettered and decorated in gilt (that is, gold) on the spine. The lower section of the front cover featured a small blind stamped (that is, embossed) of a female head (classical Greek or Roman style) in profile. Each volume had an illustrated frontispiece (often a portrait of the book's author) and a decorated title page. Both the frontispiece and the title pages featured wood engraved flower and leaf borders and sometimes included other decorated elements, such as a globe of the world. The left side front endpaper featured a cartouche (decorative box) with the words "This Book Belongs To ___". The right side front endpaper featured another cartouche with the following quotation: "A Good Book is the Precious Life-Blood of a Master Spirit - Milton". Many volumes included, in addition to the main text, an introduction, commentaries, a short biography, and questions and exercises for students. Some also had a glossary, publisher's advertisements (included a selective listing of other volumes.
