Abstract
IT was no mean task to attempt an adequate sketch of European peoples in about a hundred pages, but Prof. Fleure has been fairly-successful. His volume is opportune at a time when a sound scientific basis for the discussion of the complex problems of Europe is essential, and it is a happy illustration of the value of a geographical foundation in the study of political problems. The book contains not only a great amount of information but also a wealth of ideas, and is a genuine contribution to the vexed questions of the time. There are three sketch maps and a short but useful bibliography. The lack of an index is unfortunate.
The Peoples of Europe.
