e/Reader's Digest Condensed Books

Information
has gloss	eng: The Readers Digest Condensed Books were a series of hardcover anthology collections, published by Readers Digest and distributed by direct mail. Each volume contained several current best-selling novels (or, occasionally, nonfiction books), abridged (or "condensed"). Published originally four times each year, the rate of publication was increased gradually to a bi-monthly schedule by the early 1990s. The series was produced for more than 47 years (1950..1997), until being renamed as Reader's Digest Select Editions. (Note: UK editions seem to have been somewhat different from USA editions).
