1878–1889, 9th edition
From the preface in the Index by W. Robertson Smith (18 February 1889): "... The Rev. George M Arthur read every sheet of the book down to 1883, after which date he had the assistance of Mr J. T. Bealby, but continued to take the chief and most responsible share in that minute revision which every line of such a work demands. ... From the year 1878 Mr J. Sutherland Black acted as assistant editor, and from 1883 to the close of the work he was chief of the resident staff. ..."

Criticism of Noble

 * Starts last paragraph of 516: "WE hope and trust Mr. N. has found his advantage in the large and respectable list of subscribers to this second edition of his ill-digested, over-loaded work, But..."
 * Starts with the last paragraph on 228: "We have already said a little about the research of Noble, and here we shall give an instance of it: ... The fact is, however, that they were republished along with Herbert's Memoirs, to which, Worsley particularly refers, and it is inexcusable in Noble not to have been particularly acquainted with them. ..."

Introduction
This list contains many books that are now in the public domain. As books which are now copyright expired tend to be over 90 years old, although the details of the actions they describe are often not disputed by more recent histories, the opinions that the authors express about such things as the gallantry of their own nation's forces or the characteristics of their national enemies must be treated with caution as more modern histories my have a more balanced view.

For example

These should be used with cautionWhile such books often contain great detail Many of the resources listed here are
