Dr. Jekyll, a respectable doctor by day, morphs into Mr. Hyde, a depraved criminal, by night, in this Victorian classic. In addition to its watercolor drawings, this edition of the thriller provides information on Stevenson and the times in which he lived. While the background, including period photographs and engravings, provides context for the story, its placement on pages throughout the story is distracting.
