The american Reprint of the En-
cUcIODediO Britannica

We wish to call the attention of the readers
and thinkers of our city to this grand work. No
work of its kind stands higher in the estimation
of scholars than the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Its great cost was the only hindrance to its gene
raj use. American readers generally could not
afford to pay ten dollars per volume for twenty
one volumes. And until the work was reprinted
in the United States we were obliged to content
ourselves with its possession in few of our lead
ing libraries.
The work is now furnished in the American Re-
print at about one half its original cost and per-
feet in all its parts every word cut, illustration,
map and plate being honestly and faithfully re-
produced.
TESTIMONIALS FROM STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, OSH-
KosH, WISCONSIN.
OSHKOSH, Wis, Dec. II, 1879.
Col. E. B. GRAY, Agent for Reprint of ENcY-
CLoPEDIA BRITANNICA,
DEAR SIR: The opportunity you have given
us to compare the three editions of the ninth is
sue of the Encyclopedia Britannica-viz., the
"Original English Edition." the american Re-
print" by j. NJ. Stoddart & Co., and what is call
ed the "Scribner-Hall Edition"-has enabled us
to discover the following facts:
1. The "Scribner- Hall Edition. is decidedly
inferior to the "Orgnal" in the letter-press, pa
per and binding.
g 1t does not give the full text of the English
Edition." and in some instances the omissions in
text are such character as to teach error. Es-
pecially is this seen in the article ANATOMY,
g. The plates do not agree with the Original
most of them being smaller. These reductions
ho;,, nd &oxy%
ing the plates not being changed, correct idea
of the size of the plants (see article "Botany')
cannot be obtained
f. The marginal references, in many instances,
are so bound into the backs of the volumes as to
render them quite useless.
s. The maps vary from the "Original," show
ing that they are not "from the same," but from
quite inferior, plates. Notably is this the case
in the maps of Cornwall and Cumberland, in
which the fine-line engraving showing elevations
is entirely omitted.
g. So many serious defects occur in this ''Scrib
ner-Hall Edition" that we do not hesitate to say
that the guaranty given that we are getting the
work, "both in letter-press and Illustrations like
the English edition" is not being carried out in
good faith. In other words, we are not receiving
what we contracted for
So far as we have examined the American
Reprint" published by J. NJ. Stoddart & Co., it
is faithful reproduction in subject-matter Of
the original text maps and plates. 1t is well
printed on excellent paper, is well bound, and is
in better form for the shelves and ordinary hand
ling than quarto
