As stated on the inside front cover, "The 'Home College Series' will contain one hundred short papers on a wide range of subjects-- biographical, historical, scientific, literary, domestic, political, and religious. They are for the young-- especially for young people (and older people, too) who are out of the schools, who are full of 'business' and 'cares,' who are in danger of reading nothing, or of reading a sensational literature that is worse than nothing." "Copyright, 1883, by Phillips & Hunt, New York" is printed at the bottom of the inside front cover. The inside back cover is a publisher's advertisement for Chautauqua text books. "M.A.B." is written in ms., in pencil, on the front cover.
