Excerpt from The Origin and Growth of the English Colonies and of Their System of Government: An Introduction to Mr. C. P. Lucas's Historical Geography of the British Colonies A short list of authorities is given at the end of each chapter: such list being, for present purposes, as short as possible. The most elaborate and exhaustive bibliography on colonies and coloniaation is, so far as I know, contained in a Report on Colonial Administration 1800 - 1 goo, ' pre pared in 1901 by Mr. O. P. Austen, Chief of Bureau of Statistics, Washington, for the Congress of the United States; but a very full list of books will be found in Mr. Ireland's Tropical Colonization.

The Preface to the Introduction in r 88 7 referred to the invaluable articles in the Encyclopedia Britannica, on economic questions the articles in Mr. R. I. Palgrave's Dictionary of Political Economy will be found no. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
