Notes: Translator uncredited This may be the first publication of the translation, whose source is the 1839 edition (stated p69, viewed at HathiTrust). HathiTrust Digital Library (HDL) provides probably full view of the interior, from a Harvard University copy that is bound by the library with interior pages from four other James Burns 1845 publications. HDL catalogues the entirety by data for this publication only. This one is 3rd of 5 in the library-bound volume, displayed as images 253-326 at HDL (pp. 3-76 implied). One frontispiece leaf may be missing. Two such images, one blank page and one illustration, precede the title page image, for each of the four other publications. Publication series Burns' Fireside Library is not named in the pagespan represented at HathiTrust, p3-76 implied. Format is inferred from WorldCat record OCLC 1008504130 (below), which reports a copy in the National Art Library (Great Britain), Renier Collection of Historic and Contemporary Children's Books: "brown paper wrappers"; size 17cm.
