EVERYMAN Encyclopaedia, The (Book); BOOKS; BOYLE, Andrew; LITERATURE; ENCYCLOPEDIAS & dictionaries; REFERENCE sources

The article presents information on the book "The Everyman Encyclopedia," edited by Andrew Boyle. The editor of the encyclopedia puts forward no extravagant claim. Everyman's Encyclopedia is thus substantially a new work, written and compiled by Boyle and a staff of assistants. The encyclopedia is not unattractive externally. Although maps have been excluded by the plan of work there is only simple diagrams, old-fashioned woodcuts and rather ill-reproduced photo-engravings to break the monotony of the closely printed page.
