摘要：Twenty-five million books in the world! and 25,000,000 different books at that! As Artemus Ward would say: "This is 2 much". Henry B. Van Hoesen's "Bibliography: practical, enumerative, historical" takes this bibliographic bull by the horns; he points out in orderly manner the many paths that may be followed into this mass of books and followed to a successful emergence on the other side. To one who began his library work with the beginning of this century this work suggests A. R. Spofford's "Book for all readers"; but Van Hoesen goes much further into the historical field, especially into the history of writing and printing.
