THE HISTORY OF SOUTH CAROLINA UNDER THE PROPRIETARY GOVERNMENT, 1670-1719
By EDWARD McCRADY, a Member of the Bar of Charleston, S.C., and President of the Historical Society of South Carolina. 8vo. Cloth, gilt top. pp. xxi + 762. Price, $3.50 net.
" Unquestionably a valuable contribution to American historical literature. It covers a field that no one else has hitherto attempted to adequately treat of. It evidences a vast amount of research into musty archives and an instinct that guided the author to a discriminating selection of material. The future must surely be indebted to Mr. McCrady in no mean degree."- St. Louis Globe Democrat.
" An exhaustive study of the period to which it is devoted, and in the field of American colonial history is fairly to be called a contribution of the first order." - The Nation.
" Colonel McCrady has made a notable contribution to American historical literature, and has written one of the best books that treat of Colonial times. It is a treasury of learned research and a worthy monument to the State to whose eloquent and tragic story he has devoted his pen." - New York Times.
" The spirit of the entire work is calm and judicial; its estimates of men are discriminating, and the style, which is always excellent, rises occasionally to the display of not a little vigor and picturesqueness of statement. This is especially marked in the later chapters. The author is imbued throughout with the true historical spirit which desires above all else to set down things as they actually occurred." - Boston Transcript.
THE HISTORY OF SOUTH CAROLINA UNDER THE ROYAL GOVERNMENT, 1719-1776.
By EDWARD McCRADY, a Member of the Bar of Charleston, S.C., and President of the Historical Society of South Carolina; author of " The History of South Carolina under the Proprietary Government." 8vo. Cloth, gilt top. pp. xxviii + 847. Price, $3.50 net.
" Seldom has such careful research, so much insight, and such breadth of comprehension been applied to the delineation of any part of our colonial history. The 800 pages comprised in this volume before us represent an immense amount of first hand investigation, of faithful comparison of authorities, of studious selection and condensation." - M. W. H. in The New York Sun.
" Mr. McCrady gives a full account of the settlement and development of the country, together with sketches of the social life, which early became marked, near the coast at least, by ease and comfort, due to the wealth acquired through a profitable foreign commerce. The author understands well how to intersperse lighter details with matters of greater importance, so as to relieve his work of any suspicion of dryness." - Providence Journal.
" A highly creditable performance, showing a most thorough acquaintance with the sub- ject." - New York Times.

" It is not too much to call " The American Commonwealth " one of the most distinguished additions to political and social science which this generation has seen. It has done, and will continue to do, a great work in informing the world concerning the principles of this government." - Philadelphia Evening Telegraph.
" No enlightened American can desire a better thing for his country than the widest diffusion and the most thorough reading of Mr. Bryce's impartial and pene- trating work." - Literary World.
" The great quality of his work is that it has been prepared with a sense of justice and a fairness of statement which makes it an authority not only for foreign- ers, but for native Americans. It has been and will long continue to be the book that all young men will study as an introduction to their knowledge of American institutions, and it will do more to form the political education of the next genera- tion than any other kind of teaching." - Boston Herald.
