Books in Progress

WHAT IS A BOOK IN PROGRESS?

A “Book in Progress,” quite simply, is a publication that we at PrimaryDocuments.ca are working on, but which is not yet complete. However, due to the importance of the material both to the field of scholarship and law, we felt an obligation to release these book in their imperfect formats. It is our intention to publish these books, once complete, in an eBook and print edition. In the meantime, we will be updating these volumes in the near future—both quantitatively and qualitatively and will make the user aware when a new version has been uploaded. All previous versions will also be available for download.
