After the formation of the Conference Group for Central European History in December, 1957, and the appointment by it of a Committee to promote Studies of the History of the Habsburg Monarchy, the present writer, in his capacity as executive secretary of this committee, made a survey of publications and research projects in the United States and Canada which dealt with the history of the Habsburg monarchy and of Austria and Hungary since 1918. A preliminary report of the results of this investigation was distributed in 1958 and a revised and enlarged one in January, 1960. Although this list, which was based largely on questionnaires, was by no means complete, the survey showed that by 1959 43 books and 183 articles had been published in Habsburg, Austrian, and Hungarian history by 63 different United States and Canadian scholars. Most of these writers indicated that they were also busily engaged in research activities which gave promise that an appreciable number of further studies would be published within the next decade or two.
