CHAPTER VI.

SPECIAL BIBLIOGRAPHIES.

Bibliographies of special subjects are more useful than any other books in the formation of a library. The articles in the new edition of the _Encyclopaedia Britannica_ will be found valuable for this purpose, but those who wish for fuller information must refer to Dr. Julius Petzholdt's elaborate _Bibliotheca Bibliographica_ (Leipzig, 1866), or to the _Bibliographie des Bibliographies_ of M. Leon Vallee (Paris, 1885). The late Mr. Cornelius Walford contributed a paper ”On Special Collections of Books” to the Transactions of the Conference of Librarians, 1877 (pp.

45-49), in which he specially referred to the subject of Insurance.

In the present chapter I propose to refer to some of the most useful bibliographies, but to save s.p.a.ce the full t.i.tles will not be given, and this is the less necessary as they can mostly be found in the above books or in that useful little volume we owe to the authorities of the British Museum--”Hand-list of Bibliographies, Cla.s.sified Catalogues, and Indexes placed in the Reading-room,” 1881.

_Agriculture._--Weston's Tracts on Practical Agriculture and Gardening (1773), contains a Chronological Catalogue of English Authors, and Donaldson's Agricultural Biography (1854) brings the subject down to a later date. Victor Donatien de Musset-Pathay published a _Bibliographie Agronomique_ in 1810, and Loudon's _Encyclopaedia of Agriculture_ contains the Literature and Bibliography of Agriculture, British, French, German, and American.

_Ana._--In Peignot's _Repertoire de Bibliographies Speciales_ (1810) will be found at pp. 211-268, a list of books of Ana, and Gabriel Antoine Joseph Hecart published at Valenciennes, 1821, under the name of J.G. Phitakaer, a bibliography ent.i.tled ”Anagrapheana.” Namur's _Bibliographie des Ouvrages publies sous le nom d'Ana_ was published at Bruxelles in 1839. The late Sir William Stirling Maxwell made a collection of books of Ana, a privately printed catalogue of which he issued in 1860.

_Angling._--Sir Henry Ellis printed privately in 1811 a small octavo pamphlet of 21 pages which he ent.i.tled ”A Catalogue of Books on Angling, with some brief notices of several of their authors,” which was an extract from the _British Bibliographer_. In 1836, Pickering printed a _Bibliotheca Piscatoria_, which was formed upon Sir Henry Ellis's corrected copy of the above Catalogue. Mr. J.
