Tenth Edition
The 10th edition (1902–03) was made by the addition of an 11-volume supplement to the ninth, numbering the supplementary volumes where the ninth left off, from 25 to 35. The 34th volume was an atlas of more than 120 maps with a gazetteer, and the 35th volume contained a combined index to the 34 volumes, a combined list of contributors, and a key to the abbreviated symbols used as signatures to the articles in which for the first time “X.,” signifying anonymity, appears. Bearing the imprint of Adam and Charles Black and The Times, the title page began: “The new volumes of the Encyclopædia Britannica, constituting in combination with the existing volumes of the ninth edition the tenth edition of that work, and also supplying a new, distinctive, and independent library of reference dealing with recent events and developments….” The next page listed three editors, Sir Donald Mackenzie Wallace, Arthur T. Hadley, and Hugh Chisholm, 19 departmental editors (including Richard Garnett for biography and Edmund W. Gosse for literature), four associate editors, and two copy editors. One of the associate editors was Franklin H. Hooper, Horace Hooper’s brother, who from his office in New York controlled editorial work in the United States. The British editorial department had moved from Edinburgh to London. The preface pointed out that “these supplementary volumes are the product of the New World as well as of the Old.”
