Guarantees of Peace. International Ideals. By Woodrow Wilson. (Harpers. 4s.

net each.)—These two volumes contain respectively the President's speeches and addresses from January 31st, 1918, to December 2nd, 1918, and his speeches in Europe from December last to February 14th, 1919. The first volume is particularly useful for reference, as it includes the President's replies to the enemy's request for an Armistice, and also the revised text of the Armistice, which differed in some important respects from the text read by the President to Con- gress. The second volume closes with the President's speech in introducing the draft Covenant to the Peace Conference, and contains the first draft in an appendix.
