Census decennial enumerations are utilized to achieve two useful
estimates: (l) Annual series of estimates of births, birth rates, and
fertility rates for the white population of the U.S. from 1855 to the
present (the first set of data on an annual basis); (2) Adjusted
single-year age distributions of native white population and estimated
undercounts by five-year age groups for the white population for each
census since 1880.

The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from
the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions
preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting
them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the
Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich
scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by
Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
