The above are the authorities which have been consnlted in the
compilation of this work ; the list does not contain quite the whole of
the authors who have written upon Cyprus, but in it will be found all
the best modern works.
The “ Bookseller ” of August 6th, 1878, contains a bibliography,
which, however, does not profess to be complete, of the principal works
on Cyprus, or of which Cyprus forms a greater or lesser portion of the
subject. The arrangement is chronological. Several very old works
are mentioned. At the end of Drs. Unger and Kotschy’s “ Die Insel
Cypern,” another list of authorities upon the island will be found.
The letters and telegrams from Cyprus of the Special Correspon
dents of the daily newspapers have been much referred to.
