NOTE

The present volume, which concludes Dubnow's "Historyof the Jews in Russia-Poland," contains, in addition to thetext, an extensive bibliography and an index to the entire work.In the bibliography an enormous amount of material has beencollected, and it is arranged in such a way as to enable thereader to ascertain the sources upon which the author drew.It is thus in the nature of notes, and is therefore arrangedaccording to the chapters of the book. The index, which hasbeen prepared with the utmost care by the translator, is reallya synopsis of Jewish history in Russia and Poland, and itsusefulness cannot be over-rated.

Professor Friedlaender, the translator of this work, wholeft the United States at the beginning of this year, did notsee the proof of the bibliography and index.

The tragic news has just reached this country that ProfessorFriedlaender was murdered under the most revolting circumstances.An eminent scholar and writer has thus been removedfrom American Jewry, and the entire house of Israeltogether with the Jewish Publication Society of America, onwhose committee Professor Friedlaender served with conspicuousmerit for a number of years, mourns this irreparableloss.
