THE VALLEY OF THE MOON. BY
Jack London. Frontispiece in colors Dy

Macmillan Company.
This new novel Of Mr.. London's is.
first Of all, new evidence of the range
Of his talent and of his assured mas
terry Of his craft. We have him here
for a while again as the insurgent
against social and economic injustice,
but if he breathes revolt and revolu-
ton for a while, he points to more
peaceful and an easier way out for the
submerged, for those of them, at least,
in whom poverty has not killed the en-
ergy to be up and doing. a return 10
the land is his p.eachment in tale
that is certainly nothing less than
preachy. Indeed, it is a romance of
green fields and babbling brooks of
whispering forests and rising noun
tains, of the free road under the sun,
blue sky and the stars of night OF a
journey toward health, happiness, free
dom and a living and wealth. For Mr..
London is kind, indeed, TO the Oakland
teamster and occasional prizefghter,
who, having gone under in a strike Of
his union resolves to make new start
with his bride in the country. And so
they go in search Of government land,
learning as they go the art Of the
husbandman from Portuguese, Dalma-
tians, Cinnamon and japanese, who
love and understand the earth that
gives them sustenance in a way the
American farmer has but just begun
to learn. And through it all there is
woven as winning, as genuine an idyl
, of young love, of mutual trust and
helpfulness. Of but single, united dim
in life as one can desire.
They are Of the native stock, this
giant teamster and the beautiful laun-
dress who is his wife-of the stock
that crossed the plains and endured
thirst and hunger and danger and
hardships to win to its goal. Not Of
the winners in the later struggle up
ward, but Of those who went under.
They still have the ancestral qualities,
however, and to them they add pride OF
ancestry. The book is American to the
core. 1t is picturesque and wholesome,
romantic and yet practical, breathing,
best of all, the atmosphere Of the open
the renewed will to live.
