The volumes in this new series are ably edited and their contents, relating to the history of the Mississippi Valley region, are in general of a high order of excellence.

Parkman, Francis. A Half-Century of Conflict (Boston, 1897). 2 vols.
This covers the first half of the eighteenth century, and includes an extensive account of the Fox wars. The series to which the work belongs has long ranked as a classic in American historical literature, yet the account of the Fox wars is now obsolete in many respects, and requires rewriting in the light of the mass of documents brought to light since Parkman's work was done.
——. La Salle and the Discovery of the Great West (Boston, 1897). 2 vols.
This work still remains the standard authority on the subject treated.
