[848] [This book has passed through several editions,—1830, with lithographic illustrations; 1844, 1850, 1857, and 1868, with woodcuts. A tribute to Mr. Watson (who was born June 13, 1779, and died Dec. 23, 1861), by Charles Deane, is in Mass. Hist. Soc. Proc., v. 207; and Benjamin Dorr published A Memoir of John Fanning Watson, Philadelphia, 1861, with a portrait. Mr. Willis P. Hazard’s Annals of Philadelphia, 1879, supplements Mr. Watson’s book. The local antiquarian interest will be abundantly satisfied with Mr. Townsend Ward’s papers on the old landmarks of the town, which have appeared in the Pennsylvania Magazine of History, though much in them necessarily fails of association with the early years with which we are dealing. This is likewise true of Thompson Westcott’s Historic Buildings of Philadelphia, 1877; cf. the papers on old Philadelphia in Harper’s Monthly, 1876; cf. An Explanation of the Map of the City and Liberties of Philadelphia. By John Reed. Philadelphia, 1794 and 1846.—Ed.]

[854] It is unfortunate that a book of such merit should have been given to the public in so objectionable a form. It is a 4º, 782 + 44 pages (Philadelphia, 1881), profusely illustrated with pictures calculated to gratify the vanity of living persons and to mislead students as to the value of the work.
[855] Annals of Pennsylvania, from the Discovery of the Delaware, by Samuel Hazard, 1609-1682, Philadelphia, 1850, 8º, 664 pp. An excellent compilation, containing nearly all the documentary information on the subject, arranged in chronological order.
