odern Europe_, vol. iv (1848), which accurately represents the extreme Tory contempt for the United States, but has no other merit. Works on Canadian history fill this {253} gap to a certain extent, such as W. KINGSFORD, _History of Canada_, vol. viii (1895). Beside the work of Mahan (as above) the War of 1812 is dealt with by W. JAMES, _Naval History of Great Britain_, vols. v-vi (1823), a work of accuracy as to British facts, but of violent anti-American temper; and on the other side by J. F. COOPER, _Naval History_ (1856), and T. ROOSEVELT, _Naval War of 1812_ (1883). Sundry special works dealing with economic and social questions involved in international relations are T. ROOSEVELT, _Winning of the West_, 4 vols. (1899-1902); W. CUNNINGHAM, _Growth of English Industry and Commerce_, vol. iii (1893), and W. SMART, _Economic Annals of the Nineteenth Century_ (1910). Biographical material is to be found, in the lives of Washington (as above); of Jefferson by J. SCHOULER, (1897), and by J. T. MORSE (1883); of Hamilton by J. T. MORSE (1882), and F. S. OLIVER (1907); of Gallatin by H. ADAMS (1879); of Madison by G. HUNT (1903); of Josiah Quincy by E. QUINCY (1869). There is some biographical material to be found in BROUGHAM'S _Life and Times of Lord Brougham_, vol. iii (1872), and in S. WALPOLE, _Life of Spencer Perceval_, 2 vols. (1874), but for the most part the British version of relations with America after 1783 is still to be discovered only in the contemporary sources such as the _Parliamentary History_ and _Debates_, the _Annual Register_, and the partly published papers of such leaders as Pitt, Fox, Grenville, Canning, Castlereagh and Perceval. A useful sketch, giving prominence to the Treaty of Ghent and the Rush-Bagot Agreement, and summarizing earlier and later events, is _A Short History of Anglo-American Relations and of the Hundred Years' Peace_, by H. S. PERRIS. Documents and other contemporary material for the whole period may be conveniently found in W. MACDONALD, _Select Charters_ (1904) and _Select Documents_ (1898); in G. CALLENDER, _Economic History of the United States_ (1909), and A. B. HART, _American History told by Contemporaries_, vols. ii, iii (1898, 1901). {254} INDEX Adams, John, in Revolution, 48, 57, 63, 71, 118-125; after 1783, 142, 147, 155, 173-180 Adams, John Quincy, 237-241 Adams, Samuel, 32, 42, 50, 57, 63, 78, 131, 144 Adet, P. A., 172, 173
