AN IMPORTANT ADDITION TO THE MACMILLAN

THE WAVERLEY NOVELS. By Sir Walter Scott
THE PORTRAIT EDITION
The authentic edition of Scott revised from the interleaved set of

edition has been collated with this set, and many inaccuracies, some
of them ludicrous, corrected. The Portrait Edition is printed in
clear, easy type on a high grade of paper, each volume with colored
frontispiece, making it by far the best cheap edition of the Waverley
Novels on the market.
