On the edition. These paperback reference editions from AAMP are unusual. They're as distinct from disposable pocket paperbacks as they might be. They're formatted like hardcovers, down to the full-sized "US Trade" pages and the 11 or 12 point font. For the shorter novels, the large page size translates into a thin book; this Jekyll and Hyde is slightly less than half an inch. The editing is excellent, and all the editions in this series have a short "Publisher's Notes" section in the back of the book where the specific reference text is noted, and where the editors note any changes or corrections. For this Jekyll and Hyde, the entire publisher's section is only two pages, and the editors made exactly six changes, several of them minor formatting choices. Anyone wanting to read the story as it was published, down to the "To Katharine de Mattos" dedication, might want to consider this edition, and keep in mind this series.
