Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. The Young Folks' Treasury, Volume IV: Modern Tales and Animal Stories. Edited by Hamilton Wright Mabie, with Daniel Edwin Wheeler as assistant editor. New York: The University Society, Inc., 1909. Hardcover, 8vo. Original textured brown cloth decorated in black and green on the front b…oard, with gilt title and pictorial knight motif on the spine. Decorative Art Nouveau-style endpapers depicting family reading scenes. Contents include contributions by E. Nesbit, W. H. D. Rouse, Sheila Braine, Joan Barrett, Maggie Brown, Emily Bennett, and a full retelling of Undine, among many other stories. Features a mix of full-color plates and finely rendered black-and-white illustrations throughout. Condition: Very Good. Cloth shows light rubbing and a touch of wear at crown and corners; hinges lightly stressed but still sound. Pages show gentle age toning with occasional faint handling marks, but remain clean and supple overall. Illustrations bright and well-preserved. A solid and attractive example of this early volume in the classic 12-book Treasury set. Edition/Printing: Copyright 1909; no later printings indicated, early printing, consistent with the period's standard practice of issuing undated reprints within the same year. Hamilton Wright Mabie (1846-1916) was an influential American essayist, critic, and editor whose work shaped early 20th-century approaches to children's literature and moral education. As a long-time editor at The Outlook, Mabie promoted accessible literature for young readers and curated numerous anthologies that blended storytelling with cultural enrichment. His editorial leadership defined The Young Folks' Treasury as one of the most respected juvenile collections of its era. E. Nesbit (illustrator).
