Excerpt from The Canadian Historical Review, 1920, Vol. 1: New Series of the Review of Historical Publications Relating to Canada (Founded 1898) There were other reasons, moreover, which seemed to suggest that the time was ripe for enlarging the scope of the Review. Historical studies in Canada, which were in some respects in their infancy a quarter of a century ago, have become every year more vigorous; and there is now a large body of historical students, not. Only in Canada, but also in England and the United States, em gaged in sifting the vast masses of new material relating to Cana dian history which recent years have brought to light. Apart, however, from some admirable french-canadian periodicals, such as the Bulletin des Recherches Historiques, the Revue Canadienne, and Le Canada Francois, there is almost no medium in Canada through which the occasional work of these historical students. May be given to the public. In the United States there are many such historical journals. Not only are there periodicals of a national character, like the American Historical Review, but many sections of the country, many individual states even, have their own historical quarterlies. It seemed, therefore, a reproach to Canadians - to English-speaking Canadians, at any rate - that they had no similar vehicle for the publication of original materials relating to their own history. It is intended, for the present, to confine the scope of the review to Canadian history. But an attempt will be made to interpret this programme in the most liberal sense. As in The Review of Historical Publications relating to Canada, not only Canadian history in the stricter sense, but geography, economics, . Archaeology, ethnology, law, education, and imperial relations, in so far as they relate to Canada, will fall under review. Nor will history in the making be neglected, as against history that is made. It will, moreover, be the aim of the editors to make the review as broadly national as possible. The services of historical scholars in all parts of the Dominion will be enlisted, both as contributors and as reviewers; and in particular, an attempt will be made to make the review a connecting link between english-canadian and french-canadian scholarship. There is an amount of admirable historical work being done by French Canadians, of which English-speaking Canadians are, unhappily, all too ignorant.

Excerpt from Review of Historical Publications Relating to Canada, Vol. 1: Publications of the Year 1896 (Including Some of the Important Publication of 1895) Sabine's ambitious book, the Bibliotheca Americana, a dictionary of books relating to America from its discovery to the present time, commenced in 1868, has been carried on Since his death under the editorship of Mr. Eames, of the Lenox Library. It has now reached the middle of the twentieth volume - the article Smith - and will, when com pleted, doubtless remain the best and most important of all the bibliographies of the new world.

Excerpt from Review of Historical Publications Relating to Canada, Vol. 11 It would be showing little knowledge of England to believe that, through the fear, perhaps chimerical, of losing her self-governing colonies she will ever consent to run the risk of becoming in her turn the dependency of her dependencies. There is one thing which the progress made has not been able to end it is the absence of contiguity between the different parts composing the Union. In this sense the sea has remained, and always does remain, an abyss. An immense territory like that of the United States comprises regions which differ from one another in every respect but the road between them passes through intermediate regions which partake at the same time pi the characteristics of both of them. In the Empire there is nothing e this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
