“The exigencies governing the author in their preparation account largely no doubt for the remarkable compression that characterizes the several studies; the style is concise, the narrative compact, and the discussion penetrating and rigorous. The solid worth of the author’s contributions is shown by the infrequency of editorial corrections. The editor’s method of indicating his additions to the text leaves the reader in perplexity at times.” F. I. Herriott.

“The editor’s method of citation and cross reference cannot be commended either for lucidity or seviceableness. Professor Johnston’s acuteness in discerning the vital and fundamental facts in the currents of our political life, his remarkable industry, accuracy and thorough-going research constantly impress one.”
