Notes


{{OCLC|716475690}} Briefly reviewed in "Christmas Books" The Scotsman 1901-10-14 p3 (unsigned, positive, no price)

{{OCLC|809870797}}: Colonial ed. -- "(This edition is for Circulation in the British Colonies only)."

Digital copy, 3rd printing at HathiTrust Digital Library (as circa 1904) shows: -- no front cover -- no illustrator credit -- Illustrations, list of 18 including frontispiece (full-page b/w, plates not included in the pagination) Illustrations appear to be by one artist; almost all (15?) are signed "Arthur H. Buckland" (exceptions opposite p. 74, 91, 226); several clearly signed over date 1900 (opposite p43) or 1901 (frontispiece)

Some online booksellers and some WorldCat library records identify Buckland as illustrator of the novel, or Buckland and John Hassall as co-illustrators ({{OCLC|277052030}}, {{OCLC|2494997}}), and give years from 190? to 1968 (edition or printing dates?)
