Series Notes:
1. In 1911 the 27 books that originally made up this
series were deleted from Series #202- Format 3- Young
People's Library to become this series.
2. The size and covers of these books are the same as that
of the Young People's Library, Format 3 with a few color
changes here and there.
3. In 1915 the non Abbott titles were deleted from this
series-leaving 18 books.
4. The first editions of this series list the 27 volumes
on the back of the dust jacket and the series' book number
on the spine. Later editions had the Young People's
Library jacket used for the title prior to 1911. Without
the jacket the earliest editions cannot always be
distinguished from the later editions.
5. These books can be distinguished from the earlier books
of the Young People's Library because the books of this
series always have an ad in the back for the Stories from
History Series.
6. If the picture of a particular book cover is not listed
here, it can be found on the Young People's Library format
3 page. http://henryaltemus.com/series/series202F3.htm
