Their value to the student of the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries cannot be overemphasized, since the political, literary and apologetical Issues of those periods were largely debated and won in pamphlet warfare. The Church historian, moreover, is so much indebted to early leaflets for many basic facts that an analyzed collection of this kind must invariably stimulate research in the department of parochial origins and growth. The original plan called for a terminal cross-reference index of parishes, persons, issues and themes, but lack of opportunity made that part of the proj- ect impossible at this time, (it may, of course, be undertaken later on as a separate venture.) The compilation as it stands is divisible into three sec- tions! Pages I. The Main Index, arranged by authors or principal subjects 3-156« II* Addenda to the Main Index 157-158, III. Index of Titles for which authorship could not be established 158-169. I am indebted to my Trinity College students for help with the task at various stages. Because for them and for me it was only a part-time enter- prise, extending over many months, I cannot assume that it is completely free from inaccuracies or rigidly uniform in format, but I offer it to the public as a key to a rich reference collection, a part of which may be unique or ex- ceptionally rare. The voliune numbers in which a particular tract may be found will appear after the imprint date or at the end of the listing. The Archives of the Dio- cese will be glad to assist scholars in putting the collection to use— either by welcoming them to the library itself or by supplying, at reasonable rates, photostatic copies of what may most interest them.
