Hardcover. Condizione: 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…board, 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 (illustratore).

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Young Folks' Treasury, Volume VIII: Wonders of Science and Invention. Edited by Daniel Edwin Wheeler; assistant editor Herbert T. Wade; series edited by Hamilton Wright Mabie and Edward Everett Hale. New York: The University Society, Inc., 1909. Large 8vo, richly illustrated with co…lor plates (including protected frontispiece), halftones, and diagrams. Original publisher's decorative brown cloth with gilt-and-black stamped pictorial panels to spine and front board; illustrated Art Nouveau endpapers. Volume VIII of this celebrated 12 volume educational set surveys the scientific and technological revolutions of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Includes sections on primitive and modern locomotion, the motor vehicle, the flying machine, the gyroscope, wireless telephone and telegraphy, early telephone science, sound transmission, and additional essays by Alfred Russel Wallace, Ray Stannard Baker, Elisha Gray, and Herbert T.

Edition/Printing: Copyright page dated 1909 with no later printings stated, consistent with the earliest issue of the original 1909 Young Folks' Treasury set. The publisher did not differentiate printings, but binding, typography, and plate quality all indicate an early (likely first year) printing.

Wade, assistant editor and scientific writer, contributed extensively on topics related to physics, communication technology, and mechanical invention.
