possible. The works of Professor Ekholm and Dr Olsson are ready in manuscript and under printing.

To my above named collaborators I beg to express my warm and sincere thanks for their never failing patience and interest.

It has been of invaluable help and advantage to me to be allowed to apply to the State Librarian Dr E. W. Dahlgren, whose profound knowledge of the history of cartography, and of the geographical discoveries, is appreciated and acknowledged over the whole geographical world. Dr Dahlgren has called my attention to many of the older maps, reproduced in chapters XIX—XXIV, and he has obtained for me a great number of the original geographical documents referred to in the same chapters. He has also been kind enough to peruse this part of my work in order to guard me from eventual errors.

General O. E. von Stubendorff of St. Petersburg, and Commander Roncagli of Rome, have given me some valuable suggestions regarding Russian and Italian travellers.

Lastly, Professor Chavannes of Paris has placed at my disposal the Chinese
