"A Century of Interpretations" disar-
ranged by Mary B. Dimond, if truth
must be told, is a triumph of audacity
and cleverness, the author further be-
ing aided by a good memory and Il
unique sense of humor. The scheme Of
the book is deliciously simple. One
hundred familiar quotations are united
i'm unholy wedlock with as many 9th.
ers No break in the Typography and.
ordinarily, no change of meter marks
the transition. A key at the end,
however, lists the authors; but the
reader. to play fair, must not consult
this until memory and wits fail. In
reality there is no actual misquoting.
