Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Cambridge History of British Foreign Policy, 1783-1919, Vol. 3 of 3: 1866-1919
Finally, in once more recording our gratitude to the Syndics of the University Press, and to the whole body of its workers, for entering upon and carrying through the publication of this History, we cannot but call to mind at least one side of the very serious difficulties with which of late they have had to meet in all their under takings. In the Preface to our Second Volume we referred to the lamented death of the late Secretary of the Syndicate, Mr A. R. Waller, whose work has since been taken up by a trusted successor. More recently, the death of the University Printer, Mr J. B. Peace, Fellow of Emmanuel College, has in?icted another grievous loss upon our Press and the University Whose best interests it serves. May we add that the sorrow which these events have caused through out the Press, and the sympathy with which has been shared by the University at large, attest the intimacy of cooperation long notable in the history of an institution indissolubly bound up with the past.
