L. Poole's Catalogue of Oxford Portraits. The Toronto artist, J. W. L.
Forster, painted three different portraits of Goldwin Smith as an octo-
genarian. One of these was commissioned for the Goldwin Smith Hall
at Cornell, a second for the National Club in Toronto, where it still
hangs, and the third remained at the Grange, where it is now in the
collection of the Art Gallery of Toronto. A death mask of Goldwin
Smith by the Canadian sculptor, Walter Allward, is in the collection of
the Art Gallery of Toronto.

I am grateful to the University of Toronto Press for a very pleasant
collaboration in preparing this volume for publication, and also for
permission to reprint here some sentences from articles of mine in the
University of Toronto Quarterly and the Canadian Historical Review.
I am also indebted to the University of Chicago Press for permission to
use portions of an article of mine published in the Journal of Modern
History, and to the American Historical Association for allowing me to
use passages from an article which appeared in the American Historical
Review.

I wish also to express my gratitude to the University of Toronto and
to the Rockefeller Corporation for grants which helped me to complete
this work.

The manuscript has been read by Professor Vincent Bladen, Dr.
Eugene Forsey, and Professor F. H. Underhill. I am most grateful to
them for their generous expenditure of time and their helpful sug-
gestions. Above all, I am indebted to Professor Alexander Brady, who
first suggested the subject, who read many rough drafts, and whose
advice and criticism at every stage has been invaluable.
