Excerpt from Four Southern Magazines: A Dissertation
Review. The other two magazines are not included in this list, for the reason that verv few of their contributions are signed, and, consequently, it is practically impossible to procure a com plete or even a helpfully large list of writers. Moreover, let it be noted that the index here given is made from the magazines themselves, and hence does not pretend to the completeness that could be obtained were it practicable to use all available outside means of determining the authorship of unsigned articles. It is hoped that this limitation will not altogether prevent the list from being helpful in proportion to the labor of its compilation.
The difficulties in the preparation of the work have been great and, in some cases, so insurmountable as to necessitate leaving incomplete important parts of the discussion. The chief of these difficulties have been: The scarcity of sets of the maga zines, the lack of conveniences and facilities in some of the libraries visited, the poor indexing of the volumes themselves, and the dearth of collected information about Southern periodi cals. In this latter respect, the statements of such standard reference books as Poole's Index of Periodical Literature are more often inaccurate and misleading than strictly correct. Not a few libraries, moreover, have been visited in search of com plete sets of the magazines, but in none have there been found all the volumes of either The Southern Quarterly or debow's Review.
