The Night Land: A Love Tale

Notes

Abridged from about 200,000 words (Wikipedia) and 17 chapters to 100–120,000 words (estimate) and 14 chapters

Publisher's Note (1921, p. [8], viewed at HathiTrust) states in part: "This edition has been revised and abridged on account of present day costs of production."

All 14 chapter titles are from the original novel; original chapter titles VI, VIII, and XII do not appear. New ch V, "Into the Night Land", contains all that is retained from original ch V-VI, yet it is the shortest by far, aside from the final chapter. New ch X, "Homeward by the Shore", presumably corresponding to original ch XI-XII, is the longest by far. (viewed at HathiTrust)
