The following titles have been selected from the vast number of books and articles relating to history and its teaching, in the hope that they may prove helpful to teachers who may not already be acquainted with them. Longer lists will be found in Channing and Hart's Guide to the Study of American History, section 15, and at the beginning of the various chapters of Hinsdale's How to Study and Teach History. For discussions that have appeared since the publication of these works, see particularly the Educational Review, the School Review, and the Proceedings of the National Educational Association, the Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools in the Middle States and Maryland, the similar Association in New England, and of the New England History Teachers' Association. Mr. J. I. Wyer, of the library of the University of Nebraska, has compiled for the American Historical Association an extensive **Bibliography of the Study and Teaching of History, which it is hoped will soon be published. The prices quoted below are taken from the publishers' catalogues; in the case of works in foreign languages they do not include the cost of binding.

1. Books with which Every Teacher of History Should Be Acquainted

Charles Kendall Adams, A Manual of Historical Literature. Third edition. New York, Harpers, 1889. $2.50.
Contains an introduction on the study of history, "brief descriptions of the most important histories in English, French, and German," and suggestions as to courses of reading on particular countries or periods. The work needs revision. Sonnenschein's Bibliography of History (reprinted from his Best Books and Reader's Guide, London, 1897, 4s. 6d.), is more recent, and in some respects more helpful.

The American Historical Review. New York, Macmillan, quarterly since 1895. $3 a year (free to members of the American Historical Association).
Every progressive teacher of history should keep abreast of current publications on historical topics. The most convenient method is by means of the book reviews and notes in the American Historical Review.

Includes a consideration of methods and materials, a bibliography of American history, and a series of topical references. Especially intended for the teacher of American History.

Burke Aaron Hinsdale, How to Study and Teach History, with Particular Reference to the History of the United States. (International Education Series.) New York, Appleton, 1894. $1.50.
"No effort is made to tell the teacher just what be shall teach or just how he shall teach it. The aim is rather to state the uses of history, to define in a general way its field, to present and to illustrate criteria for the choice of facts, to emphasize the organization of facts with reference to the three principles of association, to indicate sources of information, to describe the qualifications of the teacher, and, finally, to illustrate causation and the grouping of facts by drawing the outlines of some important chapters of American history." The book is written particularly for the use of teachers in elementary and secondary schools, and contains numerous references to books and articles on the subject.
