ReviewsThis work will prove to be very useful reference book. It is recommended for all large public and academic collections., We are all indebted to librarian Riley Moffat, who has compiled this fascinating volume...a useful reference work...Moffat's publication will help us understand and cope with the rising issues relating to overpopulation, now that the U.S. is recognized as the third most populous nation in the world, after India and China., No other source gathers all these data in one place...Tables are clear and easy to read. All libraries with a need for historical population figures will want this book., ...a useful tool for the study of the interplay between population and other factors in the growth of the west. To a demographer its carefully arrayed numbers must be as beautiful as the carefully arrayed dots of color in a pointillist masterpiece are to an art connoisseur.
