Duke University Press.
The book contains a comprehen-
sive analys-is of the roleof. Russia
in the history of Europe during

that contributed to the major
happenings in Europe from the
Russian revolution through the
Napoleonic Wars.
Prof.' Lobanov-Rostovsky dis-
cusses Russia from the cultural,
military and historical standpoint
during a period in European hist-
ory which he c4escribes as, "strik-
ingly similar to the era from
which the world is now emerging,
particularly in reference to
Russia."
The 450-page book, which is
intended primarily for advanced
students in Russian history and
for those interested in interna-
tional history, sells for five dollars.
Prof. Lobanov-Rostovsky's plan is
to write a complete diplomatic his-
tory of Russia. He has been work-
ing on this history for ten years.
"Russia and Europe 1789-1825" is
the first publication resulting
from this work. He has already
compiled enough material for an-
other volume.
"Russia and Europe 1789-1825"
is Prof. Lobanov-Rostovsky's third
book. The other two are "Russia
and Asia," which covers Russia's
relations with the Orient and "The
Grinding Mill" in which he de-
scribes his personal experiences in
Russia from the beginning of the
first World War through the
Communist revolution.
Prof. Lobanov-Rostovsky, who
specializes in teaching Russian,
Balkan and Slavic history, came
to the United States in 1930 and
taught for 13 years at U C L A.
During the war he served with the
Army Specialized Training Pro-
gram while on leave from UCLA.
He came to the University in 1945.

Dean Explains Increased
TeachingOpportunities
Students who planned to enter
any other profession are now mak-
ing inquiries about teaching oppor-
tunities, Dean James R. Edmonson
of the education school has re-
vealed.
He said that the current teacher
shortage offers a special opportun-

decade well-qualified teachers will
have exceptional opportunities for
recognition and advancement," he
said.
Special programs in education
are attracting student interest,
Dean Edmonson said. One in par-
ticular is the combination program
of study in educ'ation and business
administration, he declared.

tion volumes representative of the
work of nearly every American
writer of any prominence, ranging
from Timothy Dwight, author of
a long poem, "The Conquest of
Canaan," published in 1835, to Ed-
na 6t. Vincent Millay, contempo-
rary poet.
Especially well-represented is
the period from 1825 to 1890, with
the work of novelists James Feni-
more Cooper, Nathaniel Haw-
horne and Henry James, and poets
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and
John Greenleaf Whittier. There
are nearly 50 first editions of
James' novels and about 30 first
editions of Cooper'sworks, includ-
ing "The Deerslayer" and "The
Last of the Mohicans."
Mark Twain heads the list of
a special collection of American

by the gift of 88 volumes from the
private library of the late Orla B.
Taylor of Detroit. The Rare Books
Room contains first editions of
almost everything Twain wrote, in
addition to volumes from most
other American humorists.
