revised and enlarged, of the author's English work: _The Reconstruction of
South-Eastern Europe_ (London, 1917). The noted French historian, to whom
the western world owes much of its knowledge about Slavic history, Ernest
Denis, presents an able survey of the general problem in his _La grande
Serbie_ (Paris, 1915). It is written largely around Serbia, like Savi[c]'s
book. B. Vo[s]njak in _A Bulwark against Germany_ (London, 1917), and _A
Dying Empire_ (London, 1918), presents to western readers, for the first
time, the development of the Slovene districts of Austria and their
relation to that empire and to the Jugo-Slavs.

With regard to Austria-Hungary and the Jugo-Slavs in particular, the west
owes most to the penetrating studies of R. W. Seton-Watson, who formerly
wrote under the name of Scotus Viator. Before the war, Seton-Watson wrote
_The Southern Slav Problem and the Habsburg Monarchy_ (London, 1911),
wherein he discusses the whole problem from the point of view of the
Croats, in contrast to the Serbs. The author subsequently rectified this
point of view in _The Balkans, Italy, and the Adriatic_ (London, 1915);
_German, Slav, and Magyar_ (London, 1916); and _The Rise of Nationality in
the Balkans_ (London, 1917).

Numerous writers on Austrian and Balkan affairs have devoted parts of their
general works to the Jugo-Slav movement. Only a few typical ones can
be mentioned here. Paul Samassa, _Der Voelkerstreit im Habsburgerstaat_
(Leipzig, 1910), may be taken as representative of the German of the German
Empire. T. von Sosnosky's _Die Politik im Habsburgerreiche_ (Berlin,
1912-13, 2 vols.) is the work of an Austrophil, as is also W. von
Schierbrand's _Austria-Hungary: The Polyglot Empire_ (New York, 1917); H.
W. Steed's _The Habsburg Monarchy_ (London, 1914, 2d ed.) is one of the
ablest surveys in the English language. It is thoroughly worked out in the
general features, but slights many of the national and provincial aspects
