This article focuses on a list of some books. In The American Party Battle by Charles A. Beard, the writer has added to the World Today Bookshelf of which he is editor this concise historical sketch of political parties in the United States. Another book is From Confucius to Mencken, edited by F.H. Pritchard. This vast compilation of prose from hundreds of authors in dozens of countries is manifestly an attempt at the impossible, since there has been so much prose that no one volume, however big, could do more than scratch the surface.
