Abstract
STUDENTS of the cotton industry were placed under a lasting obligation to the author of “The World's Cotton Crops” when it was published in 1915, and a grasp of the subject thus became available to any reader. The details of cotton-growing interests collected in that book gave internal evidence of the labour required to make an effective compilation by single-handed effort; the form of the book gave a reality and unity to the subject which a bald compilation must lack. It was too much to expect that Prof. Todd would be able to keep his book up-to-date, so that the action of the International Institute of Agriculture in producing the memoir now before us is doubly welcome, both as an authoritative statement of facts and as a supplementary volume to be shelved for reference beside “The World's Cotton Crops.” The Cotton-Growing Countries, Present and Potential: Production, Trade, Consumption. International Institute of Agriculture, Rome. Pp. xxxvi + 317. (London: P. S. King and Son, Ltd., 1926.) 12s. 6d. net.
