THE CORSICAN BROTHERS
Sir,-Your motion picture reviewer recently gave readers the impression that The Corsican Brothers was not only a difficult work to procure but also had only lately been translated. Both of
these impressions are incorrect. The story is well known to proprietors of any second-hand book shop, as the title has been reprinted by the chief English publishers on an average every four years since 1880. The editions most commonly | met with are the Methuen 18mo., 1920, and Readers’ Library, 1928. In the Auckland Public Library and_ the Library of Parliament the story will be found included in Vol. 2 of Dumas’ "The She-Wolves of Machecoul," published by Dent in 1895, and reprinted 1906 and 1927.
