The Nuttall EncyclopaediaThe Nuttall Encyclopaedia is an early 20th century encyclopedia, edited by rev. James Wood. It has a strong editorial voice, and concerns itself mostly with people and places. It may be the only encyclopedia that has entries for fictional characters from Charles Dickens' books, but at the same time lacks entries for fruit. Entries generally are very short. The title page proclaims this encyclopedia to be "a concise and comprehensive dictionary of general knowledge consisting of over 16,000 terse and original articles on nearly all subjects discussed in larger encyclopdias, and specially dealing with such as come under the categories of history, biography, geography, literature, philosophy, religion, science, and art". In 2004, Project Gutenberg published a version of the 1907 edition.
