Biographical Register of Christ's College. Compiled by John Peile, Litt.D.
2 vols. (Cambridge University Press. £2 net.) —The work which was begun by Dr. Peile has been completed by Mr. J. A. Venn. The two volumes cover the whole period of the college's history from 1505 to 1905, and also include the records of the earlier foundation of " God's House," which existed from 1448 to 1505. Brief biographical notes are appended wherever possible to the college and University records of the persons occurring in the list. A complete index makes the mass of information contained in the work readily accessible.—Admis- lions to Trinity College, Cambridge. Vol. v. 1851 to 1900. Edited by W. W. Rouse Ball and J. A. Venn. (Macmillan and Co. 21s. net.)—Unlike the Christ's register just mentioned, this one contains no biographical information beyond purely academic events. In the present volume, covering only fifty years, 8,674 admissions are recorded.
