became justly popular; and while the
parent work is valuable chiefly to stu-
dents of the period, its progeny still de-
light the general reader.
Tropical Africa, by Henry Drummond,
was published shortly after the au-
thor's return from his African explora-
tions in 1886; several of the chapters
having appeared as magazine articles
before their publication in book form.
There is considerable breadth of subject-
matter; but the man of science, pervaded
by a robust, religious spirit, speaks in
every chapter.
From the geographer's view-point, the
volume possesses greatest value as out-
lining the water-route to the heart of
Africa, by way of the rivers Zambezi
and Shire, and as describing some of
the great inland lakes. The geological
sketch and the meteorological note »
are admirable in their way; and the
observations upon the white ant, and
the mimicry of African insects, evince
the gifts of the painstaking and ingeni-
observer. But the author speaks
his most earnest word when he treats
the Heart Disease of Africa [the slave
trade), and its Pathology and Cure. )
Professor Drummond severely arraigns
the Powers) for tolerating the inhu-
man enormities of this hideous traffic.
The language of the volume throughout
is vivid though simple; and the quaint
humor, now and again appearing, adds
zest and flavor to the interesting narra-
tive.

EDITORIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Tis evident to any one who examines the LIBRARY that its value
largely rests upon the original contributions of authors and
scholars in Europe and America. The list of writers at home
and abroad is one that would give distinction to any work. For their
cordial aid and for their valuable suggestions during the progress of the
undertaking, the editors return sincere thanks. Many of the writers are
to be credited with many articles besides those to which their names are
attached. For a full list of writers who have signed their articles, see
the accompanying table.
It is pleasant also to make special acknowledgment of the great aid
rendered by
Professor WILLIAM CRANSTON LAWTON, who for most of the time had
charge of the classical department;
Mr. CHARLES H. GENUNG, who had the oversight of the Middle Euro-
pean literature;
Miss HARRIET WATERS PRESTON, for valuable assistance in the Proven-
çal language and also in the classics;
Mr. E. IRENEUS STEVENSON, for assistance in the selections from French
and other European authors;
Mrs. SERRANO and Miss HILLARD, for translations from the Spanish and
the French;
Mr. WILLIAM POTTs, for effective editorial work during nearly the whole
course of the production of the work;
Mr. EDWARD C. TOWNE, for very valuable assistance in the latter por-
tions of the work; and,
Mr. FORREST MORGAN, who has had editorial charge of the production
of the volumes in the printing-office, and whose taste, skill in typography,
and extensive and remarkable knowledge of authors and of literature,
have been invaluable during the whole undertaking.
We have been constantly under obligations for the many courtesies
of the librarians of the Mercantile, Astor, Columbia University. and the
Lenox Libraries.
We are indebted to the very large number of publishers who have per-
mitted us to use copyrighted articles of which they had control, and
whose rights we have endeavored to protect in every case by notice of
such copyright accompanying the literature selected.

SYNOPSES OF NOTED BOOKS

ous
became justly popular; and while the
parent work is valuable chiefly to stu-
dents of the period, its progeny still de-
light the general reader.
Tropical Africa, by Henry Drummond,
was published shortly after the au-
thor's return from his African explora-
tions in 1886; several of the chapters
having appeared as magazine articles
before their publication in book form.
There is considerable breadth of subject-
matter; but the man of science, pervaded
by a robust, religious spirit, speaks in
every chapter.
From the geographer's view-point, the
volume possesses greatest value as out-
lining the water-route to the heart of
Africa, by way of the rivers Zambezi
and Shire, and as describing some of
the great inland lakes. The geological
sketch and the meteorological note »
are admirable in their way; and the
observations upon the white ant, and
the mimicry of African insects, evince
the gifts of the painstaking and ingeni-
observer. But the author speaks
his most earnest word when he treats
the Heart Disease of Africa [the slave
trade), and its Pathology and Cure. )
Professor Drummond severely arraigns
the Powers) for tolerating the inhu-
man enormities of this hideous traffic.
The language of the volume throughout
is vivid though simple; and the quaint
humor, now and again appearing, adds
zest and flavor to the interesting narra-
tive.

EDITORIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Tis evident to any one who examines the LIBRARY that its value
largely rests upon the original contributions of authors and
scholars in Europe and America. The list of writers at home
and abroad is one that would give distinction to any work. For their
cordial aid and for their valuable suggestions during the progress of the
undertaking, the editors return sincere thanks. Many of the writers are
to be credited with many articles besides those to which their names are
attached. For a full list of writers who have signed their articles, see
the accompanying table.
It is pleasant also to make special acknowledgment of the great aid
rendered by
Professor WILLIAM CRANSTON LAWTON, who for most of the time had
charge of the classical department;
Mr. CHARLES H. GENUNG, who had the oversight of the Middle Euro-
pean literature;
Miss HARRIET WATERS PRESTON, for valuable assistance in the Proven-
çal language and also in the classics;
Mr. E. IRENEUS STEVENSON, for assistance in the selections from French
and other European authors;
Mrs. SERRANO and Miss HILLARD, for translations from the Spanish and
the French;
Mr. WILLIAM POTTs, for effective editorial work during nearly the whole
course of the production of the work;
Mr. EDWARD C. TOWNE, for very valuable assistance in the latter por-
tions of the work; and,
Mr. FORREST MORGAN, who has had editorial charge of the production
of the volumes in the printing-office, and whose taste, skill in typography,
and extensive and remarkable knowledge of authors and of literature,
have been invaluable during the whole undertaking.
We have been constantly under obligations for the many courtesies
of the librarians of the Mercantile, Astor, Columbia University. and the
Lenox Libraries.
We are indebted to the very large number of publishers who have per-
mitted us to use copyrighted articles of which they had control, and
whose rights we have endeavored to protect in every case by notice of
such copyright accompanying the literature selected.
