From the internet: "There are two definitive editions of the Waverly Novels. One is the "Magnum Opus", a 48-volume set published between 1829 and 1833 by Robert Cadell, based on previous editions, with new introductions and notes by Scott. This was the basis of almost all subsequent editions until the appearance of the standard modern edition, the Edinburgh Edition of the Waverley Novels, a 30-volume set, based on early-edition texts emended mainly from the surviving manuscripts, published by Edinburgh University Press between 1993 and 2012." FYI< I have 32 books of the Magnum Opus 48-volume set. They are in fantastic condition, especially considering that they are almost 200 years old.
