Though this work is of an early date it will be found of interest
to the law student. It has the advantage of two good indexes, one
of authors, and the other a classified list of subjects.

adservantur Catalogus. 7 vols in 8, 8vo. _London._ 1813-19.

vols., 8vo. 1833-34.

printed]. Folio. _London._ 1841.
It is scarcely necessary to remark that, practically, there is
no printed catalogue of the library of the British Museum, and
apparently there never will be. The manuscript catalogue fills a
room about 30 feet square.

This is an entirely new edition of this invaluable bibliographical
work, very much enlarged and improved, and elegantly printed on
fine paper. "On the whole, the most useful and instructive work we
possess in this branch of bibliography (_restricted_)."--EBERT:
