This review is from: The World's Greatest Books - Volume 02 - Fiction (Kindle Edition)

These volumes contain digests of the great books. The following is from the introduction of Volume 1:
"In THE WORLD'S GREATEST BOOKS an attempt has been made to effect a compendium of the world's best literature in a form that shall be at once accessible to every one and still faithful to its originals; or, in other words, it has been sought to allow the original author to tell his own story over again in his own language, but in the shortest possible space.
An important additional feature of the work is the brief, yet highly critical biographical and bibliographical note which accompanies every author "
These volumes might be called the "Cliff Notes" collection.

Can't believe some of the reviewers thought these volumes would contain all of the greastest books in their entirety, but these little samples are exactly what I wanted. If I like the sample, I can read the book...

I have several of this series and the titles all look identical on the Kindle Home Page. Have added my own notes to distinguish them, but some title editing by the publisher would be appreciated.
