CHAPTER XX

CRITICAL ESSAY ON AUTHORITIES

BIBLIOGRAPHICAL AIDS

Four special bibliographies of American history are serviceable upon the field of this volume.  First, most searching and most voluminous, is Justin Winsor, Narrative and Critical History of America (8 vols., 1888-1889).  Mr. Winsor has added to the study of the era of colonization by the writers of his co-operative work the vast wealth of his own bibliographical knowledge.  The part of Winsor applicable to this volume is found in vol.  III., in which most of the printed contemporary material is enumerated.  The second bibliography is the Cambridge Modern History, VII. (1903); pages 757-765 include a brief list of selected titles conveniently classified.  J.N.  Lamed, Literature of American History, a Bibliographical Guide (1902), has brief critical estimates of the authorities upon colonial history.  Channing and Hart, Guide to the Study of American History (1896), contains accounts of state and local histories (Sec. 23), books of travel (Sec. 24), biography (Sec. 25), colonial records (Sec. 29), proceedings of learned societies (Sec. 31), also a series of consecutive topics with specific references (Sec.Sec. 92-98, 100, 101, 109-124).  For the field of the present volume a short road to the abundant sources of material is through the footnotes of the principal secondary works enumerated below.  The critical chapters in The American Nation, vols.  III. and V., contain appreciations of many authorities which also bear on the field of vol.  IV.
