An ambitious project to bring into print the entire contents of the best romances, novels and tales published in America and Europe up until that time. It began publication as a 2d weekly paper bound into half-yearly volumes. In this form it ran to four volumes from January 2, 1839 to December 30, 1840. It was then converted into a chapbook format for easier reading. Each volume contained around 1.2 million words. Although not all stories are supernatural, there is an emphasis on the gothic romance. Because of the importance of this series, the full contents are included for completeness. |

The new series switched to a chapbook format, with the remaining seven volumes of the Library consisting of twenty-four monthly parts. There was no sequential page numbering in the series as they were simply bound volumes of the chapbooks. The new series had less horror fiction than the first, concentrating on more sensationalistic fiction of the day but again, because of the special significance of the series full contents are included for completeness. |
