About This Item
Incomplete set - 13 volumes: VI, XI-XVII & XX-XXIV. Pebbled faux leather. Embrossed in gold. Book block has red on top side only.
A collection of literature from multiple authors/writers. Anything from poetry to novels. Volume VI has Frankenstein by Marry Shelley for example.
The genesis of the University Library lies in a compilation of Little Masterpieces, the first of which were published ages ago. The material included in these volumes were selected by editors and writers whose experience was great and whose taste was excellent. Out of the Little Masterpieces grew a course in liberal education which was known as the Pocket University, and out of the Pocket University grew finally, the University Library.
