Summary:

For almost a half century, Houghton Mifflin's Riverside Editions have been one of the most respected series in publishing, featuring classics of American, British, and continental literature, with introductions and annotations that make these works accessible and meaningful to both the student and the general reader. Building on the distinctive approach and unrivaled reputation of that series, the New Riverside Editions offer a fresh vision that enhances classic works -- including works long unavailable -- with the most recent critical and historical thinking and information. The new series will appear at the rate of six to eight books a year.

At a time when fewer and fewer people have the historical and literary skills needed to appreciate many of the classics fully, the New Riverside Series gives general readers the tools they need to discover or rediscover the books that have withstood the test of time. These tools include introductions from top scholars, annotations, historical timelines, and a wide range of critical essays. Here are the classics for a new generation -- superbly edited, designed, and produced.
