A Christmas Carol Paperback - 2010
by Charles Dickens
In this edition, everyone's favorite misanthrope appears in company with four more Dickens stories--"The Chimes, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life," and "The Haunted Man"--that further develop the Christmas spirit Dickens did so much to invent.
About this book
The publication of the first edition was fraught with complications, and even though the book was received to positive reviews, profits of the book fell far below Dickens' expectations, and the financial strain caused rifts between Dickens and the original publisher, Chapman & Hall.
First Edition Identification
The initial publication of A Christmas Carol was challenged by several issues, and those issues are evident in some of the first edition identification notes. The final product of the first edition was printed with a red cloth binding with gilded pages and yellow endpapers. The very first copies were printed with green endpapers, and those copies are exceptionally rare.
The first edition contains four colored illustrations and four black and white illustrations. In the first edition, Stave I is printed with the roman numeral, while later editions spell out the number to be printed as Stave One.
