Federal Book Company succeeded the F. M Lupton Publishing
Company in 1902. A number of Lupton Series were continued by Federal at
that time - including all of the series that included the Jacob Abbott
biographical books. As opposed to most of the post-1900 publishing
firms that printed the Abbott biographies, Federal only published five
Abbott titles.
