This book has slight toning to the pages. There are no ownership markings. The cover has a small scuff to the upper right edge from sticker removal.. Light corner rubs and mild soiling to the covers. Pictorial cover is still bright. Illustration of Humpty Dumpty on rear cover. Scuffing to board edges. VERY GOOD only This vintage children's book is over 100 years old. 

Versions of Uncle Tom's Cabin in the decades after the copyright lapsed. Although the only author credited is Stowe herself, the text below was almost certainly derived (without acknowledgment) from the adaptation "by Mary E. Blaine" published by Barse and Hopkins in their PLEASANT HOUR SERIES children's book, In addition, Matlack and Graham re-used the dozen black-and-white illustrations from this edition in their PICTURE BOOK version of the novel, intended for younger readers. This adaptation of Stowe's novel includes much of the book's "minstrel" material -- i.e. the scenes with Chloe and her "poetry," Dinah in the kitchen and Topsy misbehaving.
