Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

largest selling book of all time after the Bible. Bound in a
distinctive blue cover, it earned the nickname "the blue-backed

edition, complete with traditional blue binding, recaptures school
days gone by.
