Excerpt from State and Federal, Government in Switzerland, Vol. 9
It is eminently appropriate that a study Of Switzerland should appear under the auspices of the Johns Hopkins University, since within its walls are kept the books and papers Of one Of the most eminent historians Of that country, Professor J. C. Bluntschli, who began his career in Zurich, but ended it at Heidelberg as an European authority upon inter national law. While yet in his native country he wrote extensively upon the history Of Zurich, and upon the consti tutional history Of the whole confederation. At his death, in 1881, his library, manuscripts, and historical materials were purchased by German citizens Of Baltimore and presented to this University. TO this collection was added, in 1886, a large number Of books and pamphlets relating to the history and government Of Switzerland, presented by the Federal Council at Bern, through the kind mediation Of the Hon. Emile Frey, then minister plenipotentiary Of Switzerland at Washington, now a member Of the Federal Cabinet. It was largely due to these gifts that a study Of Switzerland was made possible without continuous residence in that country.
