Constitutional History 35 Lecture Subjects and References in U. S. Constitu- tional History 45 THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS WASHINGTON f PREFATORY NOTE The reference lists here collected are designed to facilitate the work of students of History in the Ohio State University, and to promote special studies in the subjects presented. The lists relating to the Middle Ages, Modern Europe and English Consti- tutional History are as full as the resources of the State Library would admit. The lecture subjects and references to accompany the course in United States Constitutional History are fortunately more nearly complete, as the State Library is well equipped in the published sources. Still no claim is made that the list is exhaustive. It is presented with the hope that it may prove to be a practical working list for students whose time is subject to the limitations of the college curriculum. In the collection and verification of a considerable number of my references I have had the intelligent and valued assistance of Mr. Edward E. Sparks and Mr. Oliver L. Fassig, B. S. , both former students in the department. The excellent ' ' Manual of Historical Literature," by Professor Charles Kendall Adams, has been used by me with great advantage.
