Excerpt from The English Catalogue of Books Published From January, 1835, to January, 1863: Comprising the Contents of the "London" And the "British" Catalogues, and the Principal Works Published in the United States of America and Continental Europe; With the Dates of Publication, in Addition to the Size, Price, Edition, and Publisher's Name It will be observed that none of the works published in 1863 are included in the present volume, which was, of course, in process of completion during that year. Some of those books might have been included; but the necessity was felt for terminating at some exact point of time, and it was thought better to omit the books of that year altogether, than to leave a doubt as to how far they were, or were not, included. It is proposed, however, to continue the publication of an Annual Catalogue such as that for 1863, already issued during the progress of this volume through the press. It is also purposed, at no very distant period, to continue the Index which has already been published from 1837 to 1855, from the latter period, this Index having been found especially useful. It has been often said, that an Englishman will sacrifice everything to an idea, and were it not that the Editor is fortified on all sides by assurances he receives of the great need of the Dates, he would, upon considering what the present work has cost him, be filled with anxiety, lest it, too, should prove a sacrifice for an idea. This is the only alloy to the satisfaction he feels at the completion of his labours; but he clings to the hope, that the large amount of time and capital bestowed upon it will obtain for the New Catalogue the appreciation and approval of the public.
