The collection contains numerous works devoted to German history, and it is my desire to set these apart, and to add to them, until their number shall reach ten thousand volumes. These ten thousand volumes would have a book plate of their own and would form in the Harvard library a special collection of works on the history of Germany and of German civilization. They would be but a small portion...
