PACIFIC COAST BRANCH.
Reported by H. W. Edwards.

The Pacific Coast Branch of the American Historical Association met at Berkeley, Cal.. March 31 and April 1. The teachers' session was held on Saturday, April 1. The topic under consideration was "Historical Geography." Prof. Don E. Smith, of the University of California, outlined the principal features of the geography of Europe, as they have affected history. The chief points to be noticed are: 1. The location of Europe in the land mass of the globe. The points of connection with Asia (Byzantium) and Africa (Sicily and Spain) are important. Observe relative latitude of places (historical significance of the fact that Montreal

has the same latitude as Venice). 2. Natural divisions of Europe. 3. Salient physiographic features: Mountains, including the great passes, the great plains, rivers and harbors, the Rhine-Danube frontier. In all this it is necessary to bear in mind the reaction of man upon nature to know in order the successive works of man in modifying natural features.

Mr. W. J. Cooper, of the Berkeley High School, followed with a practical discussion of methods of teaching historical geography in high schools. A preliminary survey of the geography should precede each course in history. This may be conducted in such a manner as to place the pupil in an expectant attitude, thus arousing interest. Mr. Cooper spoke of the relative value of wall maps and atlases. The atlas has the advantage of being more accurate and more handy. Physical maps should be extensively used, or else the many meanings of such terms as France, Germany, will leave the pupil with a false conception of Europe. The students should be made familiar with the use of the Gazetter. Maps made by the pupils should be original, not copied. Pictures illustrate geography, and correct the tendency of the children to project their present ideas into the past.

Miss Maude F. Stevens, of the Palo Alto High School, maintained that in order to make history valuable for the future lives of the pupils, we must make it definite and concrete, and for this purpose map work is most effective. Good maps can easily be made by the teacher in any size desired. They should be made simple, each one bringing out one main point.

Mr. Alden H. Abbott, of the San Jose High School, spoke of the use of geography in teaching the history of California. Geographical features exercised a great influence in determining the direction of approach to California. The difficulty of the overland routes explains the use of the Panama and Cape Horn routes. Railroads were needed to overcome the isolation of the far West; these followed the old trails. The pupils' knowledge of local geographic conditions may be advantageously used.

Prof. H. Morse Stephens urged that every pupil should have an atlas. He would prefer to have the text-books printed without maps, thus reducing their cost, and the money saved invested in a good atlas. Prof. E. D. Adams and others agreed with this view, and pointed out how inaccurate are many of the maps in our text-books.

The new officers of the Pacific Coast Branch are: President, Mr. Hubert Howe Bancroft; Vice-President, Prof. Rockwell D. Hunt, University of Southern California; Secretary-Treasurer, Mr. H. W. Edwards, Oakland High School; Council, in addition to above officers, Prof. E. I. McCormac, University of California; Prof. P. J. Treat, Stanford University; Rev. J. M. Gleason, Palo Alto; Mr. Nicholas Ricciardi, Fremont High School, Oakland.

Periodical Literature

HENRY L. CANNON, PH.D., EDITOR.

(Conducted with the co-operation of the class in Current Literature of Leland Stanford, Jr. University. Contributions suitable for this department will be welcomed. Address Box 999, Stanford University, Cali fornia.)

-The January number of the American Journal of International Law contains the sixth installment of Gaillard Hunt's "History of the Department of State."

"The Slave Plantation in Retrospect," in the Atlantic Monthly for March, is written by Winthrop More Daniels, and is based upon the first two volumes of "The Documentary History of American Industrial So ciety," which are separately entitled “Plantation and Frontier, 1649-1863." The documents have been selected wholly from the economic point of view, and accordingly furnish excellent material for dispassionate treatment.

-According to Charles M. Harvey, in tne March number of the North American Review, "Our Lost Opportunity" for securing the present provinces of British Columbia and Yukon consisted in President Madison's refusal to co-operate with Astor's Oregon project so far as to give him adequate protection. Had this been given "we should have had an unbroken coast line from San Diego to Point Barrow, far above the Arctic Circle."

History in the College Course" is considered by Charlton Huntley Hayes, of Columbia University, in the Educational Review for March. 'The purpose of college history-bear in mind that this does not imply university courses in history-is to explain the present. College history thus becomes frankly utilitarian." His description of the use of the current newspapers for "laboratory" work is of special interest.

"The Authorized Version of the Bible: Its Tercentenary," by Canon Vaughan, is a paper of which the purpose is "to trace the history of this great version and to consider its beneficent influence on the life and language of the English people."

"The Intimate Life of [Alexander] Hamilton," by Charles H. MacCarthy, (Catholic World, March), is based upon the recent work bearing that title, by Allan McLane Hamilton.

Frontispiece

[ocr errors]

The Frontispiece this month is a reduced copy of No. 24 of Longmans Historical Illustrations, representing England in the twelfth century. The original is 9"x12", and is one of a set of twelve plates relating to England in the twelfth century. Similar pictures are arranged in portfolios for the 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries. The cut shows drawings relating to navigation, work and sport. Among the many useful occupations of the monks, the development of agriculture was perhaps the most beneficial to the country. Marshes were drained, clearings were made in the forests, and much otherwise waste land was brought under careful cultivation with all the science available at the time. The Irish chieftains, armed with "the axe which they always carry in their hands in place of a staff," and the quaint pictures of birds and animals, are from a contemporary copy of "The Description of Ireland," by Giraldus Cambrensis. In MS. pictures of this time ladies are represented riding "astride." The arrangement of the dress is not very clear, and the fashion here suggested is borrowed from a German picture. The ship in the centre picture, with the wooden structure on board, is taken from a MS. picture. [Longmans' Historical Illustrations, six portfolios, each containing twelve plates, 90 cents, net.

Cheyney's

Short History of England

By EDWARD P. CHEYNEY

Professor of European History in the University of Pennsylvania Price $1.40

A widely-commended text admirably adapted for use in Colleges and High Schools that offer a fairly complete course in English History.

Among the causes contributing to the success of Cheyney's History are, briefly its thorough scholarship and admirable historical perspective; its absolutely clear and vivid style; its adequate attention to the social and biographical sides of the subject; and its fine equipment in maps (42 in all), illustrations (over 140), bibliographical lists, genealogical tables, and other aids.

Cheyney's History has enhanced value through the publication of the accompanying Readings in English History, and Trenholme's Outline of English History, based on the Cheyney text.
