"The plight of educated single women without means was a major social issue in Britain at the turn of the 19th century. Since there were a million more women than men, the future of a genteel spinster was far from secure. Marriage was a financial matter - a business essential to her economic and social status, and the penalties for 'failure in business' were severe. Emigration to the colonies offered a way out, and no place advertised more energetically for these 'redundant' women than the…

London: Folio Society, 2015. First Edition Thus, First Impression First Printing. Softcover. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Complete set of the Folio Collectables series published by The Folio Society in 2015 and 2016. All first printings and fine copies. The only minor flaw is with 'Huckleberry Finn'. A little too much glue was used at front and back, meaning the endpapers don't sit quite flat, and there is a little glue showing through the gutter of the white blank before the half-title page (see photo). All fine o/w and probably all unread. The Folio Society published these ten books in the Folio Collectables series in 2015 and 2016. They won best Brand/Series Identity at the #BBDP Awards in 2016. In Folio's words: "the series contains great works of fiction and non-fiction, elegantly designed and typeset, and presented in a pliable full-cloth binding which is as appealing to the touch as it is to the eye".

The Everyman's Library was conceived and brought to life by J. M. Dent (1849-1926), bookbinder and publisher, and Ernest Rhys (1859-1946), poet and editor, who both had the vision of a large collection of the great books of the world, in a handsome edition that would be affordable by the common man. Number 31 in the series, 'The French Revolution' was one of the first 50 titles to be published in February 1906.
