A Register of National BibUography. By William Pridoaux Courtney. Vol.
iii. (Constable and Co. 16s. net.)—Seven Years ago Mr. Courtney published vols. i. and ii. of this work ; in this, the third, he supplies omissions and adds notices of books or Portions of books since published. Item from p. 163 will serve as specimens of the book. "Leland, Charles Godfrey (general Writer), by Eliz, Robins Pennell, 1908, 2 vols. bibliog., vol. ii., 429" It is recorded that in the second volume of Mrs. Pennell's book on C. G. Leland there is a bibliography extending to five Pages of that author's writings. The next item concerns John Leland, and tells us that in Miss L. Toulmin Smith's edition of his itinerary, at pp. 287-290, there is a list of hooks and writers quoted or Cited by him. 'Under the heading of "Lexicography" we have references to three contributions on this subject made to the Journat of Philology in 1876-77. Mr. Courtney deserves the thanks of all students for the very valuable help with which he furnishes them in this volume.
