Constitutional Reflections
This edition of the correspondence between A. V. Dicey and A. B. Keith is of interest to scholars of imperial history and the law, especially the field of conflict of laws. It presents the exchange of views between Dicey, the older professor, and Keith, the young man at the the Colonial Office, on a multitude of topics of contemporary importance.

A History of Sanskrit Literature
Taken in conjunction with my sanskrit Drama, published in 1924, this work covers the field of Classical Sanskrit Literature, as opposed to the Vedic Literature, the epics, and the Puranas.

Imperial Unity and the Dominions
In this classic work of political theory, Arthur Berriedale Keith argues that the future of the British Empire lies in the development of a truly imperial unity, in which the various dominions and territories work together for a common purpose. Drawing on a range of historical and contemporary examples, Keith shows how such unity can be achieved, and how it can help to preserve and extend the power and influence of the British Empire in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.
