ecame a
national figure is recounted by J. H. Latane in "America as a World
Power" and by F. A. Ogg in "National Progress", both volumes in the
"American Nation" Series. Briefer summaries of the general history of at
least a part of the period treated in the present volume are to be found
in Frederic L. Paxson's "The New Nation" (1915), and Charles A. Beard's
"Contemporary American History" (1914).
The prosecution of the trusts may be followed in "Trust Laws and Unfair
Competition" (Government Printing Office, 1916). Much useful material
is contained in "Trusts, Pools and Corporations", edited by W. Z. Ripley
(1916). W. H. Taft in "The Anti-Trust Law and the Supreme Court"
(1914) defends the Sherman Act as interpreted by the courts during his
administration.
The progress of social and industrial justice is outlined in "Principles
of Labor Legislation" (1916), by John R. Commons and John B. Andrews.
The problems of conservation and the history of governmental policy are
set forth by C. R. Van Hise in "The Conservation of Natural Resources in
the United States" (1910).
The "American Year Book" for the years 1910 to 1919 and the "New
International Year Book" for the years 1907 to 1919 are invaluable
sources of accurate and comprehensive information on the current history
of the United States for the period which they cover.
Willis Fletcher Johnson's "America's Foreign Relations", 2 vols. (1915)
is a history of the relations of the United States to the rest of the
world. A shorter account is given in C. R. Fish's "American Diplomacy"
(1915).
But much of the best material for the historical study of the first
decade and a half of the twentieth century is to be found in the pages
of the magazines and periodicals published during those years. "The
Outlook", "The Independent", "The Literary Digest", "Collier's", "The
Review of Reviews", "The World's Work", "Current Opinion", "The Nation",
"The Commoner", La Follette's "Weekly"--all these are sources of great
value. The Outlook is of especial usefulness because of Mr. Roosevelt's
connection with it as Contributing Editor during the years between 1909
and 1914.
