Public Library Notes.

The following set of books, which

ed by the Wisconsin history commission

maps and portraits.
The purpose of the commission is
merely to select and publish such ma

Much labor and professional skill have
been put on their preparation.

tire of reading of the great struggle;
they will be interested in this new civil
war literature. Special research and
