Abstract
THIS is a revised and enlarged edition of the first issue, which appeared last year. A further edition is promised at the end of 1936. For every one of the Crown Colonies, Protectorates and Mandated Territories a full account is given of position, area, the chief facts of climate, population, races, occupation of inhabitants, public finance, trade, natural resources and communications. No other publication gives such a mass of orderly information about the colonies, and the volume has the further advantages of being authoritative and of conforming to a uniform arrangement throughout.
