"This vohiine contains a careful i-evie\v of the {jhj-sical features of 

 North America, which is exceedingly helpful to the student in under- 

 standinj»; the develoj)meiit of llie various colonies. This is sui)plemented 

 by a survey of the principal lines of connnunication — Indian trails, 

 j)()rtaj2;es, water-\va3's, and mountain passes — which have been of the 

 utmost im])()rtance in (l('terminin<i the course of events in American 

 history * * * Of i)articular value is Professor Farrand's able discussion 

 of the American Indians. Reasoninpj from a j2;reat mass of collected data, 

 he reaches sane and conservative conclusions. The author has made a 

 point of condensation, and has supphed the want of a tiiorou^h. s3'ste- 

 matic study of the Indians in a small compass."

The most recent account of the Delaware, but merely ])reliminary 

 sketches, forerunners of a much larger work based on personal archaeo- 

 logical research about New York City and ethnological stud}^ among the 

 surviving Delaware of Canada and Oklahoma, which, when given to the 

 public, will be the dernier mot on the subject.
