THE JOSEPH QUINCY ADAMS MEMORIAL STUDIES was published last year by the Folger Shakespeare Library under the editorship of James G. McManaway, Giles E. Dawson, and Edwin E. Willoughby. It contains a frontispiece portrait of Dr. Adams, an appreciation by Stanley King, former President of Am herst, a biographical sketch by Professor Lane Cooper, a bibliogra phy of Dr. Adams' books and articles, and 53 tributary articles by American and English scholars, on Shakespearean and Renaissance topics. The volume runs to over eight hundred pages, is handsomely printed with almost no errors, and might be called by a humorist the memorial to end all memorials.
