My warm thanks are due to Mr. C. T. Atkinson, M.A., of Exeter College, Oxford, who most kindly read through the proofs of the chapter on the War of American Independence and made some valuable corrections; and also to Mr. C. Atchley, I.S.O., Librarian of the Colonial Office, who has given me constant help. Two recent and most valuable books have greatly facilitated the study of Canadian history since 1763, viz., Documents relating to the Constitutional History of Canada, 1759-91 , selected and edited with notes by Messrs. Shortt and Doughty, and Canadian Constitutional Development , by Messrs. Egerton and Grant. I want to express my grateful acknowledgements of the help which these books have given to me.
C. P. LUCAS.
