To that end, the NBL issued Reader's Guides on a variety of subjects, each written by an author with expertise in that field and containing an annotated bibliography of recommended titles on the area. Originally published in 1947, this volume is devoted to Victorian fiction, covering a broad range of genres and subject matter. Illustrative figures and an index of authors are included.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eForeword Michael Sadleir\u003cbr\u003e Introduction to the exhibition John Carter\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Loans to the exhibition\u003cbr\u003e The catalogue, in 23 sections (A-I functional, J-W by subjects): A.
