    • The copyright page states: "This Dover edition, first published in 1977, is an unabridged republication of the text as published in three volumes by Chatto and Windus, Piccadilly, London, in 1887."
    • Although Dover doesn't indicate printings in their editions, the verification copy is thought to be a first printing because of the handwritten date "Jan. '78" inside the front cover.
    • The back cover states the price as $3.00 (US)/$3.50 (Canada).
    • The back cover states: "Unabridged republication of 1887 edition. v + 244pp. 6½ × 9¼. 23506-8 Paperbound." (those "v" pages are unnumbered)
