CHARLES DICKENS' WORKS.
A New Edition.
Among the many editions of the works of this greatest of
English Novelists, there has not been until now one that entirely
satisfies the public demand. — Without exception, they each have
some strong distinctive objection,—either the form and dimensions
of the volumes are unhandy—or, the type is small and indistinct—
or, the illustrations are unsatisfactory—or, the binding is poor—or,
the price is too high.
An entirely new edition is now, however, published by G. W.
Carleton & Co. of New York, which, it is believed, will, in every
respect, completely satisfy the popular demand.—It is known as
“Carleton's New Illustrated Edition.”
Complete in 15 Volumes.
The size and form is most convenient for holding,—the type is
entirely new, and of a clear and open character that has received the
approval of the reading community in other popular works.
The illustrations are by the original artists chosen by Charles
Dickens himself—and the paper, printing, and binding are of an
attractive and substantial character.
This beautiful new edition is complete in 15 volumes—at the
extremely reasonable price of $1.50 per volume, as follows:—
1. —PICKWICK PAPERS AND CATALOGUE.
2. —OLIVER TWIST.—UNCOMMERCIAL TRAVELLER.
3. —DAVID COPPERFIELD.
4. —GREAT EXPECTATIONS.—ITALY AND AMERICA.
5. —DOMBEY AND SON.
6. —BARNABY RUDGE AND EDWIN DROOD.
7. —NICHOLAS NICKLEBY.
8. —CURIOSITY SHOP AND MISCELLANEOUS.
9. —BLEAK HOUSE.
10. —LITTLE DORRIT.
11. —MARTIN CHUZZLEWIT.
12. —OUR MUTUAL FRIEND.
13. —CHRISTMAS BOOKS.—TALE OF TWO CITIES.
14. —SKETCHES BY BOZ AND HARD TIMES.
15. —CHILD'S ENGLAND AND MISCELLANEOUS.

catalogue of all of Charles Dickens' writings, with their positions
in the volumes.
This edition is sold by Booksellers, everywhere—and single specimen
copies will be forwarded by mail, postage free, on receipt of
price, $1.50, by
