- Notes: Date from Google Books scan. Bound in red cloth with green and black stamping to the front cover and the spine. The front cover also has a partial pictorial paste-on. Although there is no actual date in the book besides the New Amsterdam Book Company copyright, most sources give the book a ca 1901 date. I find this date doubtful because the New Amserdam First Edition was not released until late December of 1901 per Publishers Weekly of 12-21-1901. Besides the 322 pages of text there is also an undated 6 page catalog of Grosset & Dunlap books at the end of the text. The list of plates mentions 6 plates at pages 98, 166, 207 218, 292, and 310. In this copy plates are found at pages 102, 176, 220, 252, and 296 which correspond with the first five plates, and I could not find the 6th plate in this copy of the book. I could not find a mention of this edition in Publishers Weekly, I doubt that many reprints got mention. A copy on Internet Archive has a past owners name and a 1906 date written on the front end page.
