Edward Moxou, the present Editor undertook the continuation of the work, and the superin- tendence of the Seventh Edition, while passing through the press. This led eventually to his undertaking the thorough renovation of the book, which has been gradually effected by revision and correction and copious additions. The new features include Chronological Tables at the beginning of the volume, innumerable historical, literary, scientific, topo- graphical, and geographical facts inserted in the body of the work, and a Dated Index. To make room for these additions the size of the page has been enlarged, many articles have been condensed or printed in smaller type, and much useless matter has been expunged.

The Twentieth Edition continues the general history of the world during the last three years, under the heads of the respective countries; the more important events being noticed in separate articles. Especial attention has been given to the affairs of the British Empire, political, ecclesiastical, social, commercial, and philanthropic. Details are given relating to the political affairs of France, Germany and the United States of North America, to European progress throughout Africa, and to revo- lutions in South America. In the course of revision extra attention has been given to the articles connected with ancient history in relation to modern researches. Many small articles have been inserted relating to V1 PREFACE. Topics liable to arise in general conversation. This edition contains eighty-two pages more than the last published in 1889.

The Editor has endeavoured to make the book a dated Cyclopedia, a digested summary of every department of human history, brought down to the eve of publication. The kindness of those friends who have pointed out errors and omissions, which are almost unavoidable in a work of such scope and magnitude, is gratefully acknowledged. Much of the information in the book necessarily depends on varying statements often exceedingly difficult to verify. The more important events that have occurred during the printing of this edition, are noticed in the Addexda, at the end of the volume. BENJAMIN VINCENT.
