Synopsis

Excerpt from France in the American Revolution This book, the latest fruit of Mr. Perkin's long-continued devotion to studies in the history of France, was practically complete at the time of its author's death in March, 1910. In preparing the manuscript for the press Mrs. Perkins has been greatly assisted by Dr. John Franklin Jameson of the Carnegie Institution in Washington, who read the manuscript and made valuable suggestions; by Professor Charles Halstead Van Tyne of the University of Michigan, who has verified all the references and made other important suggestions; by Mr. George B. Ives of the Riverside Press, who has made the index; and by other gentlemen connected with that press, who have been most helpful in all stages of the publication of the work. To all these Mrs. Perkins desires to express thankful appreciation. She finds great satisfaction in being able to give. the book to the public substantially as Mr. Perkins left it. The work of final revision, which fell to her, has been done with that appreciation of the author's intention and with that understanding of his habits of thought and expression which no other editor could have brought to the task. To the wide circle of the author's personal and literary acquaintance, the editor has done great service with rare success.
