11 stories by three Crawford siblings Containing stories by Francis Marion Crawford (8) and his sisters Mary (1) and Anne (2), this is an ISFDB anthology or omnibus strictly.

This is a new edition with the same story contents. The three siblings are here in a new sequence (formerly Francis, Anne, Mary). The 2008 dustjacket (image linked below) markets the book as an omnibus, with one title for each sibling listed one by one in "Title Author" fashion. On the other hand, the 2016 ebook cover screen, so to speak, markets the Francis component alone, whose title implies a collection.

The 2016 ebook copyright screen, so to speak (viewed as "Look inside" at Amazon US), reports first publication in 2008 and introduction copyright (c) "2008/16" by Dalby.


• "This edition adds one story not in the original (Tauchnitz 1911) publication of this title as well as stories by Crawford's sisters, Mary and Anne." - Locus1 • The above statement is untrue in two ways: the original edition was the 1911 Unwin and this edition adds twostories by F. Marion Crawford plus the two by his sisters • Limited to 250 numbered copies.
