...books, as their title indicates, are a history of British foreign policy from Lord Carmarthen to Lord Curzon (1783-1919), or from the time Britain can be said to have had a defined foreign policy up to the end of the Great War. On the period anterior to 1783 Sir Adolphus Ward, Master of Peter-house, Cambridge, has written a long introduction in which he has skilfully outlined the main considerations and salient characteristics of those early days. The work as a whole can, therefore, lay serious claim to being a complete review of the whole of British foreign policy...

The ingenious combination for controlling up-and-down direction and maintaining transverse stability by means of a single pair of anterior planes is a feature of great possibilities which has never before been embodied in a full sized aeroplane. In the progress of the science of aviation, the "Harvard I" will pray its part by demonstrating the practicability of the new ideas embodied in it. The men who have been actively...
