"Ragnarok: The Age of Fire and
Gravel" By Ignatius Donnelly, author of
atlantis; an Antediluvian World" Illu-
strated. (London: Sampson Low and Co..
This is book that could only have come
from the land of the setting sun. AS Heine
used to say of a great Hebrew capitalist,
that he treated his poorer acquaintance
tres famiIlionairement, so we may say of
this Transatlantic theorist on the origin
and destinities of this little planet on
which we move, that he treats this poor old
world of ours very transatlantically. His
theories are avowedly gigantic,
such as might beft citizen of
the biggest republic in the habitable
universe. Enthusiastically enough
for the citizen of country where bigness
is everything, and duration of no account,
and where enormous towns and enormous
fortunes are destroyed and rebuilt from
one day to another, this stupendous specu-
lator in cosmogony begins and ends with
"Drift," on the summit of which Temporal
ry pile of successive superintendent ruins
of worlds destroyed by commissions or by
comets, at vast intervals of time, the hu-
man race breathes out it's moment of a
life. There is an agreeable fascination to
unscientifc minds in the prodigious ease
with which our imaginative American
filings about his Titanic conglomerations
and mixes up his Genesis read by the
light of his comet" with his pre-glacial
civilization and his Atlantean myths. One
fancies Watt Whitman's nightmare after
an indigestion of popular geologies and
ast1 onomies, and ''big drink of Victor
Hugo. And when the author concludes with
the assumption that all these appalling
cataclysms have been designed for the
benefcient purpose of raising to
higher levels of creative develop
ment the Americanized human being of
the nineteenth century, we are tempted to
recall the complacent theory of the French
doctrinaire historians of forty years ago,
that all the history of France had been
specially ordained by Providence to pave
the way for the Constitutional Monarchy
of 1880. Mr.. Donnelly concludes book
which, with all its deliberate eccentricities,
is often eloquent and suggestive, with
sort of dithyrambic appeal to ''Dives" to
cease to defy wealth and matter, to ''es-
tablish spiritual relations" and to "open

milky way" The advice is excellent, but
the ultimate hypothesis that from social
istic world in which the values of labor
will be readiusted 'God will fend off the
comets with his great right arm, and the
angels will exnlt over it in heaven" ap-
pears, we must confess, something of ar
anti-climax.
