From the blurb: "Mr Hanson's aim has been to record from the principal libraries of Great Britain and Ireland all new works on economic affairs published in the first half of the eighteenth century. The entries are arranged chronologically by years of publication, and the entries for each year are subdivided under the headings General, Agriculture, Manufactures, Commerce, Colonies, Finance, Transport, and Social Conditions. A single entry comprises author's name, title, place of publication, date, size, and location. The titles are transcribed fairly fully to avoid ambiguity or confusion. First editions only are given full entries; subsequent editions or reissues are recorded in footnotes. Altogether there are a little over 6500 main entries. The comprehensive indexes are an important feature of the book. An index of titles brings the complete material into alphabetical order; and a general index of authors and subjects ensures that the book can be used selectively. Mr Hanson contributes an introduction in which he discusses the history of the project, and his methods of compilation and transcription. He also speculates about the reading public for whom these books and pamphlets were written."

Laminated illustrated wrappers, 8vo, xiv, 297 pp. From the preface - "This book, as its title suggests, is intended to provide friendly and helpful company for any student of Milton. .What follows. is not a series of homogeneous encyclopaedia articles but eighteen original essays by eighteen different human beings who care about Milton, who would (and do) disagree with each other about innumerable issues, and who seek in an informative, responsible, often argumentative way to say something important about a subject they love. Unfortunately, this book does not include discussion of all of Milton's works, nor does it exemplify every major critical approach; such are the limitations of a single volume. But each contributor has been asked to try to do in a modest way what Milton himself so consistently does: by means of a particular style, angle of vision, or argument to encourage critical thought, further study, and a process of understanding. Moreover, despite the fact that this book is intended primarily for the serious student approaching Milton for the first time, I have invited each author to speak in his or her own voice, and without condescension."

Library cloth, gilt spine, 4to, 22 cm, 131 pp, [1] folded leaf. 337 entries. Exhibition arranged by Desmond Flower for the National Book League. From the Foreword: "The intention of this display is to show something of every side of the making of books in which France has excelled during the past thousand years. The exhibits have been drawn as largely as possible from British libraries and collections, generously supplemented and enriched by a highly important group from the French National Libraries and a further small group from French private collections. The earliest exhibits slightly antedate the thousand years' in order to include the Carolingian Uncials and Minuscules which formed such an important contribution to the development of calligraphy. The terminal date of 1920 has been chosen for two reasons. The period between the wars produced in France a large number of writers who, judged at such close range, appear approximately to be of equal standing - only time will bring them into perspective. To have extended the exhibition to the present would have involved numerous invidious distinctions if the cases devoted to the present were not heavily to outweigh those representing the past. The same period saw also the extraordinarily rich outpouring of illustrated éditions de luxe begun earlier in the century by Ambroise Vollard. These have recently been most adequately shown to the public at the National Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Institut Français, and a terminal date of 1920 has enabled the present display to be confined to the smaller books produced by the same artists before the first world war, which are less sumptuous but less often seen to-day."
