This facsimile edition reproduces the copy held in the Lewis Walpole Library, which remained at Strawberry Hill until the sale of contents in 1842. This copy is unique in that it contains over 500 pages from the very rare 1770 Strawberry Hill edition of Fugitive Pieces in Verse and Prose (which was never completed and left unpublished). Walpole's Works is still the standard authoritative edition of his writings and this facsimile will fill a conspicuous absence in many libraries.

Also included is a summary paragraph highlighting the individual's historical importance and indicating why the person is studied today. The body of each essay is divided into three major sections: "Early Life" provides facts about the individual's upbringing and the environment in which he or she was reared. "Life's Work," the heart of the essay, consists of a straightforward, generally chronological account of the period during which the individual's most significant achievements were accomplished. Lastly, "Significance" provides an overview of the individual's place in history. The front matter includes a complete list of contents, a pronunciation key, lists of maps and sidebars, and a section of maps displaying major regions of the world during the twentieth century. Several appendixes and indexes can be found at the end of Volume 10, including a table of Rulers and Heads of State, a chronological list of personages, and 4 complete indexes.
