Herbert L.  Osgood, 1855-1918.

American historian at Columbia.

Originating from Maine, Herbet Levi Osgood was educated at Amherst College, obtaining his BA in 1877.  After a sojourn in Berlin,  where Osgood came under the influence of the German Historical school, Osgood returned to the US and enrolled at Columbia to study history and political science under John W. Burgess, his former teacher at Amherst. 

Although primarily a historian of the British Empire, Herbert L. Osgood reviewed many economics works for the Political Science Quarterly, especially on socialism.  Osgood's articles on scientific socialism (a review of Rodbertus and Marx) and anarchism (Proudhon) served as his dissertation at Columbia.
