With Bibliographical and Historical Notes, and Synopses of the Contents of some of the Works least known. 8vo, pp. iv, 430. _New York: Scribner, Armstrong & Co._ 1873.

So far, the most extensive list of books on this subject. Mr.
Field has devoted many years to the acquisition of the books, and
his notes, which are numerous, convey much valuable information
concerning not only the books, but the Indians themselves. "This
bibliographical handbook, embracing a collection of about 1800
works, may be considered the chief, if not the only one of its
kind. The author's notes are judicious and valuable, and have an
interest beyond even the actual subject of the Essay. Collectors
of Americana of every kind will derive pleasure and profit from
a labour that evinces a wide range of study and experience."--B.

Henry Fishwick, F.S.A. ... 8vo, pp. vi, (2), 443. _London: George Routledge and Sons_ ... 1875.

The titles and collations in this otherwise good work are unusually
redundant. The titles are given at length, with every detail of
the location of the publisher, which is a waste of space, and to
some of them there is appended such a statement as "Temple of the
Muses," which is merely an advertising bait of the publishers.

volumes in 1743, and two more in 1744. The last volume is not,
properly, a part of the work, though issued under the same name.

[HARRISSE (Henry).] Bibliotheca Americana Vetustissima A Description of Works relating to America published between the Years 1492 and 1551 Imp. 8vo, pp. (8), liv, 519. _New-York Geo. P. Philes_, MDCCCLXVI

Four hundred copies printed in imperial 8vo, one hundred and nine
in 4to, ten of which are on Holland paper. It was undertaken at
the suggestion of Mr. S. L. M. Barlow, of New York, and contains
the titles of over three hundred books. As a specimen of American
typography, it has probably never been surpassed. In regard to
its merits it has received at the hands of some members of the
Geographical Society of Paris very high praise, of which an
English version (in part) will be found in Stevens' _Bibliotheca
Historica_, followed by some rather severe criticism on the work
by Mr. Stevens, who, writing in the third person, quotes largely
from an article in the _Athenæum_ of the 6th of October, 1866, of
which Mr. Stevens is the author. The writer of this notice does
not presume to enter into a controversy with, or a criticism upon,
the works of either of these bibliographers, but he cannot help
regretting that a work so elaborate, learned, and useful to the
American bibliographer, as this _Bibliotheca Americana_ is, should
have been the vehicle of any exhibition of personal pique. We have
been assured on very good authority that the blunder of "Ander
Schiffahrt's" was really due to the proof-reader, and that the
Index, in which Schiffahrt (Ander) is made to appear once more in
_propria persona_, was not the work of Mr. Harrisse at all. Let it
suffice for us to remark that for the student of the earliest of
books relating to America, this book is indispensably necessary. We
may add that Mr. Harrisse has, in some instances, quoted works from
White Kennett's _Bibliothecæ Americanæ Primordia_, and made the
remark that he has found nothing in the works so quoted relating to
America. This has arisen from the fact that he has misapprehended
the nature of that work, which purposely introduces many books
which had no relation to America. The following is a continuation:

[HARRISSE.] Bibliotheca Americana Vetustissima A Description of Works relating to America published between the Years 1492 and 1551 Additions Imp. 8vo, pp. (iv), 40, 199, (1). _Paris Librairie Tross_ M.DCCC.LXXII

Two hundred copies printed in 8vo, and fifty copies in 4to. In the
matter of printing and paper this volume exceeds in beauty that of
its predecessor. Its contents cover the same ground; some titles
contained in the former work are further elaborated, and many are
entirely new. It will, perhaps, not be saying too much that many of
them are only remotely related to America, but the author's careful
researches and elaborate dissertations have combined to render the
volume a very desirable addition to an American bibliographical
collection.

[HARRISSE.] A Brief Disquisition Concerning the Early History of Printing in America. Imp. 8vo. _New York: Privately Printed._ 1866.

Twenty-five copies printed, of which five are on drawing paper.
Forms part of the introduction to the _Bibliotheca Americana
Vetustissima_. A Spanish version has been printed.

[HARRISSE.] Fernand Colomb Sa Vie, ses Œuvres Essai critique par l'auteur de la Bibliotheca Americana Vetustissima. Imp. 8vo, pp. (vii), 230, (1). _Paris_ M DCCC LXXII

Whatman's paper.

[HARRISSE.] Notes on Columbus. Sm. folio, pp. vii, 227. 13 Photographs.
_New York: Privately Printed._ 1866.

Ninety copies only printed for presentation, at the expense of
Samuel L. M. Barlow, of New York. It is one of the finest specimens
of printing by the Riverside Press, and having been privately
printed, is as rare as it is beautiful. It is both bibliographical
and historical, and in each department is a specimen of seal and
erudition.

This is a capital resumé of the Bibliography of Canada up to
1700. The volume is very handsomely printed; some copies are on
vellum paper, and others on Dutch paper. The following should have
appeared under Desjardins: "Rapports sur les Deux Ouvrages de
Bibliographie Américaine de M. Henri Harisse Avocat. Par M. Ernest
Desjardins lu à la Séance de la Commission Centrale, le 18 Janvier

Twenty-five copies printed in imperial 8vo on large vellum paper.
The original letters in this volume form a very interesting portion
of its contents. Those of Ciofanus are filled with abuse of Aldus
Junior, whom he terms _la Cornacchia Esopea_, and of whose literary
ability he speaks very slightingly. It also includes a reprint of
_Capell's Shakesperiana_.

[HARTSHORNE.] A Geyfte ffor the Neue Yere: or, a playne, plesaunte, and profytable Pathewaie to the Black Lettre Paradyse. Sq. 18mo. _Cambridge._ 1825.

This amusing bibliographical squib is written by "Carolus Henricus
Hartshorne," in whose hand the memorandum of the number of copies
printed is given on the fly-leaf. It appears from this that
only twenty were printed, and probably in a private manner for
presentation. The spelling and printing are equally ancient in
style, and the whole discourse, ending with the poem, runs upon
black letter and other antique lore.
