It is particularly valuable for the opportunity which it gives to compare the various methods employed by Western nations in the Pacific. An entertaining and weighty book." The Buffalo Express. "In brief, the volume presents a vivid impression of the various countries visited, their peoples, scenery, social and political life, and their parts in the great drama of the future. The many illustrations are supplied from sketches and photographs made by Mrs. Colquhoun, and add greatly to the ethnological significance and interest of the work.". The Public Ledger, Philadelphia. THE HISTORY OF COLONIZATION From the Earliest Times to the Present Day By HENRY C. MORRIS Formerly United States Consul at Ghent, Belgium "Henry C. Morris, a Chicago lawyer, who was the consul of the United States at Ghent, Belgium, during Cleveland's second administration, has made a valuable contribution toward the intelligent discussion of current topics in 'The History of Colonization.' The book is inclu sive and may almost be said to run from prehistoric times to that somewhat nebulous future when Great Britain will have brought the South African republics under her flag. It is distinguished throughout by the strictest adherence to the modern form of history-making. As a marshalling of such facts it is fairly encyclopædic, and the student and statesman may turn to its pages with confidence. Nothing before the reading public to-day contains a tithe of the information to be found here compacted and arranged. Footnotes throughout the work add to its value, and the apparatus of indexes and a bibliography at the end greatly facilitate the use of the book." The Chicago Tribune.
