pute for nearly a century.... For the purposes of critical study and precise reference Mr. Ford's edition, it seems to us, most of necessity exclude all others. Quite apart from the extremely valuable editorial work included in the introductory part of the volume, Mr. Ford's index (_The Federalist_ has never before been indexed) would entitle him to a vote of thanks by Congress." _Prof. Edward G. Bourne_, of Yale: "The most useful edition for the working student." _The Dial_: "Mr. Paul Leicester Ford has many titles to the gratitude of students interested in American history, and none more clear than that which is due him for his edition of _The Federalist_.... The work is admirably done in all important respects, and should be upon the desk of every teacher of American constitutional history." _Prof. Carl Evans Boyd_ of University of Chicago: "His edition leaves nothing to be desired, and will undoubtedly become the standard." _The Outlook_: "A singularly illuminative introduction; ... one of the best planned and most valuable contributions ever made towards the clearer understanding of our history." HENRY HOLT & CO., 29 West 23rd Street, New York. GORDY'S POLITICAL PARTIES IN THE UNITED STATES Vol. I, 1783-1809. 598 pp. 12 mo. $1.75, _net, special_. A work intended for the thoughtful reader without much previous knowledge of the subject. To be completed in four volumes, the second of which is now in press. _Nation_: "Four years ago we had an opportunity to pronounce a favorable judgment on it....

LEE'S SOURCE BOOK OF ENGLISH HISTORY Edited by Dr. GUY CARLTON LEE. 609 pp. 12 mo. $2.00, _net_. Some 200 documents and selections from contemporaries from Herodotus to the last treaty with the Boers. With a full Bibliography of Sources (60 pp.). _N.Y. Tribune_: "The generous scope of the work would alone commend it to the student. _Every detail in the book increases his gratitude_.... Mr. Lee appears to have used the best judgment, choosing just such documents as the reader desires to get at.... Altogether, this is a most serviceable publication. Mr. Lee's little introductory notes to his various documents are judiciously brief, but always sufficient and interesting." HENDERSON'S SIDE LIGHTS ON ENGLISH HISTORY _Wit
