Review: "For the first time, an annotated edition of Bram Stoker's Dracula examines all of the evidence, including contemporary travel books, scientific texts, Victorian encyclopedias, as well as Stoker's own notes for the narrative and manuscript itself." "Readers will encounter over 1,500 illuminating annotations that provide fascinating background information on the language, customs, and history of Victorian England and fin de siecle Europe. Adding to this literary bonanza are esoteric maps, vintage Victorian photographs, and campy illustrations culled from countless stage and film productions."--BOOK JACKET.
