Original publisher's mustard cloth, stamped in black adorned with a spider's web in which is perched a long-armed spider. ¶ First Edition in English and the First American edition. The first title was translated by Mrs. Sophie M. Butts; the second by William H. Browne. This book was first published in Russia in 1872-3, but was not published in England until 1895.
