Dick's English Library of Standard Works

"I have the volume 34 which contains 13 issues of the paper bound together in publisher's paper cover at 1s. 6d. The British Library has these volumes in stock and catalogues them as though each volume is part of a series, however . . A close examination shows that the volume is made up of 13 publications, each of 32 pages, each numbered (No. 1 Vol. 34, No. 2 Vol. 34, etc. etc.) and each dated in the lower margin of the last page December 14 1892, December 21 1892, etc. etc. Many story papers and boys's papers dated themselves in this manner.

The ENGLISH LIBRARY was a reprint magazine with several serial parts per issue and the occasional short story as padding. Authors who appeared in this series include Albert Smith, Capt. Maryatt, W. Carleton, J. F. Cooper, Bulwer Lytton, Mary Shelley, Robert Paltock, G. W. M. Reynolds, Paul de Kock, Victor Hugo, Laurence Sterne, Henry Cockton, George Sand, W. M. Thackeray, Tobias Smollett, Maria Edgeworth, Charles Lever, etc." (John Eggeling, May-2001)
