Guide to the Study and Reading of American History

Excerpt from Guide to the Study and Reading of American History

Parts IV, V, and VI contain references made and classified on an entirely different basis from that of the earlier part of the work. Under one hundred and seventy-nine successive topics appear specific references to works and designated parts of works, arranged under the four captions, General, Special, Sources, and Bibliography. These references are intended to be useful to readers, students, and teachers who wish to be directed to the most convenient and most available treatment of particular subjects. In some cases, particularly in the topics on economic and social history, there is a subdivision easily understood by the user.
