1.0 out of 5 stars
Don't purchase this version,
By Donna A. (New York) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Children of the Poor (Paperback)
This book contains numerous typographical errors that make it difficult to read. A statement from the publisher in the front of the book claims that because the book was scanned by a "robot" it contains textual errors (and no images) but that the buyer can access the correct version on-line. Amazon.com should acknowledge these errors in the book in advertising it. In any case, it strikes me that the publisher of this book has scanned it and put it up for sale simply to profit from the opportunity (since this book is now out of copyright), and for no other reason.
