Edition Notes

Added engraved title page.

"Published under the direction of the Committee of General Literature and Education, appointed by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge."

The Plumptre ed. was first pub. in 1826. Lovett, R.W. Robinson Crusoe, lists two Society eds., an unexamined 1850 ed. (406)--and an 1882 reissue (645). NUC pre-1956 also lists an 1850? and an 1882? edition. The British Museum Defoe catalog lists a [ca. 1850?] ed. None of these descriptions exactly match the copy in hand.

Remainder of imprint: Sold at the depositories: 77, Great Queen Street, Lincoln's Inn Fields; 4, Royal Exchange; 48, Piccadilly; and by all booksellers.

Some ill. engraved by Whymper.
