Mystery and adventure are blended In
Lincoln Colcord's first novel, The Drift
ing Diamond which is published this
week. In many ways the story is sug-
gestive of the sea tales Of Joseph Con-
rad. Vigorous, untamed, carrying the
reader along in the sweep Of its narra-
tive, marked by many an evidence of an
understanding Of life on the ocean, all
of which one finds in Conrad's books,
there is also that in the style Of writing
which indicates that Mr.. Colcord has
come under the older authors spell. The
combination Of the real with the mythi-
cal has often been attempted by authors,
but never with such amazing results as
