Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Guide to Diplomatic Practice, Vol. 1
The idea of editing a series of contributions to Inter national Law and Diplomacy was conceived some years ago, and' arrangements were made accordingly with intending contributors. The outbreak of the great war jeopardized the Whole undertaking, and it became doubt ful whether the plan would ever be realized. However, Sir Ernest Satow, in spite of the troubled times, has succeeded in completing the present work on Diplomacy which he had undertaken to write for the series, and there is also ready for the press a monograph on International Conventions and Third States, by Mr. Roxburgh, which will be published presently. Further, there is hope that a work on Private International Law, treating the matter on a rational and comparative basis, may be published in 1918 from the pen of Dr. John Pawley Bate. A volume on Diplomatic History, by Mr. G. G. Butler, Fellow and Lecturer of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and other contributions are in preparation.
