LITERARY REVOLUTION AND
UNIVERSAL KNOWLEDGE»
An Encyclopedia of 20 Vola., over 16,000 Pages; 10 per cent more matter than
any Encyclopaedia ever before published in this country, and sold, handsomely and
well bound, in cloth for $10, in half morocco for $15, and printed on fine heavy paper,
wide margins, bound in half Russia, gilt top, for $20—an enterprise so extraordinary
that its success, beyond all precedent in book publishing, may bo fairly claimed to
inaugurate a Literary Revolution.
T he L ibrary of U niversal K nowledge is a reprint entire of the last (1879)
Edinburgh edition of “ Chambers’s Encyclopaedia,” with about 40 per ceiit. of naw
matter added, upon topics of special interest to American readers, thus making it
equal in character to any similar work, better than any other suited to the xvanta of the
great majority of those who consult works of reference, and altogether the latest
Encyclopædia in the field.

Special Discounts to all early subscribers, and extra discounts to clnbs. Fall particulars with

Leading principles of the American Book Exchange :
»
I. Publish only books of real vaine.
II. Work upon the basis of present cost of making books, about one-half whit it was a few years
ago.
, -.
----------------- ------ ____________ _
III. Sell to buyers direct, and save them the 50 to 60 per cent, commission commonly allowed to
dealers.
• t ♦
IV. The cost of books when made 10,000 at a time is hut a fraction of'the cost when made 500 at a
time—adopt thé low price and sell the large quantity.
V. Use good type, paper, etc., do careful printing, and strong, fiat binding, but avoid all
“ padding,” fat and heavily-leaded type, spongy paper and gaudy binding, which are so commonly
reported to to make books appear large and fine, and which greatly add to their cost, put do not add to
their vaine.
VI. To make $1 and a friend is better than to make $5 and an enemy.
