Notes:
- Revised edition (that is, revised for The World's Classics #500, 1946) Size 19 cm (that is, larger than The World's Classics) See also the Publication Series record.
- Publication date and price from listing in "Books Out Today", NY Herald Tribune 1947-03-27 p27. (Multiple dealers at ABEbooks and Amazon report December 1947. Another printing is possible, but none now reports an earlier month.)
- Publication series name is from the front cover. One literary columnist reports "the new American World's Classics Galaxy edition" (so capitalized). One advertisement by the publisher, NY Times 1930-03-30 pBR32, displays the heading: The first volume to be published in the WORLD'S CLASSICS Galaxy EDITION
- Preface title should be checked. Reports of its 1921 publication as "An Infidel Century", rather than "The", are known to be spurious.
- Postscript title should be checked. "After Twentyfive Years"?
