222 University of Caifornia Pubications in History

tory of the United States in various foreign archives published by
the Carnegie Institution of Washington, and to the indexes to
records in the National Archives, the Division of Manuscripts of
the Library of Congress, the British Public Record Ofice, and the
French Foreign Ofiee, all available at the archives named.
 The Library of Congress now has photographic copies of nearly
all the regular series of correspondence of the foreign govern-
ments mentioned with their representatives at Washington for
the period of this study. This material, acquired through the Li-
brary's "Project A" under a grant from the Rockefeller Founda-
tion, makes available to students in this country identical copies
of a vast collection of records. The Library of Congress and other
institutions in this country have transcripts of varying quality
of certain other manuscripts at Sevilla. For this study almost all
the foreign manuscripts cited have been studied in the archives
abroad.
 The private collections in Spain have not been exploited, but
 some information has been obtained concerning them. Those of
 prominent men in this country are well known. The greatest ob-
 stacle to a complete study of this subject is the fact that the papers
 of the Adams family are not available.
 Official manuscripts are classifed according to archival distri-
 bution, and for convenience the abbreviations used are repeated
 after each archives title.
