F UC-NRLF B 3 tEtD flfll /^]OCL. "library of congress, DIVISION ()Y BIBLIOGRAPHY. A LIST OF BOOKS (WITH KEFEREI^CES TO PERIODICALS) ON THE DANISH WEST INDIES BY A. P. C. G-RIFFIN, CHIEF OF DIVISION OF BIBLIOGRAPHY. WASHINGTON: GOVERNMENT PKINTINO OFFICE. 1901. INTRODUCTION. The only authority' in Enolish dealing- exclusivel}" with the Danish West Indies appears to be C. E. Taylor's "Leaflets from the Danish West Indies: Descriptive of the social, political and commercial con- dition of these islands." The author was for many years a resident of St. Thomas, and his work has the value of afl'ording information acquired at first hand. The geographic manuals like Reclus's ''The Earth audits inhabitants" and Stanford's "Compendiimi of geography and travel" give good summar}" accounts of the history and natural features of the islands. The negotiations for the purchase of the islands in 1865-1869 are well set forth in James Parton's "The Danish islands: Are we bound in honor to pay for them?" and in briefer form in Curtis's "The United States and Foreign Powers" and Wharton's "A Digest of the international law of the United States." The proceedings of the Danish parliament are printed in the " Rigsdagtidende." A pamphlet by Dixon, "The St. Thomas treaty. A series of letters to the Boston Daily Advertiser," reports the proceedings in Washington while the treaty was pending, and also contains the text of the treaty. The Danish colonial fiscal system in the West Indies is the subject of an essay by C. W. Tooke, printed in "Essa3\s in colonial finance by the members of the American Economic Association." The tabulated statistics of the commerce and commercial regulations of the islands ma}' be found in the publications of the Bureau of Sta- tistics of the Treasury Department and the Foreign Commerce Bureau of the State Department. The publications of the Statens statistiske Bureau of Denmark include statistical tables of imports and exports, merchant marine, and navigation. The various reports from our con- suls at St. Thomas have been noted in their proper place in this list. A. P. C. Griffin, Chief of Division of B'lhliogrcqyhy.
