This is volume 5 in a published series of nine, with 'other volumes in preparation'. Four black and white plates.

Stephen Crane is the author of The Red Badge of Courage. Great Battles of the World was first published in 1901.

Condition This volume is in remarkable condition for its age. The first and last few pages show some foxing (yellow spots), while six of the leafs show creasing at the bottom corner. One of the plates has a small corner crease in it also. This book comes with the (very) scant remains of a dust jacket, the few (parts of) words visible indicating the title and a reference to The Red Badge of Courage. They have been retained for the buyer's interest.
