 Lieutenant Dawson. whose two war books, The Glory of the Trenches" and Carry On,' have had many sym pathetic and admiring readers, was commissioned by the British govern ment to visit the American army in
 France, and in this book he gives an
 account of his visit.
 It is a vivid, prophetic statement of
 Amerieas programme in France. It's
 brilliant judgments are authoritative and based on observed facts to which no other writer has as yet had access. There have been a good many ques- tions as to what difference America s iparticipation would make in the war and how soon her weight would begin | to tell. This book, which combatant 1 officer was drawn out of his lighting | line especially to write on account of ] his grasp of American affairs, gives an answer to all such questions.

 RUNAWAY RUSSIA"
 By Florence Mcleod Harper. Illustra- tions from photographs by Donald Thompson The Century company, pub fishers. New York.
 This book presents the Russian revolu- tion as seen through woman's eyes, and with special reference to the cataclysm as it affected women. A woman sees things, of course, that escape a man s eye, and Mrs Harper was in the thick of the revolution from it's beginning until the passing of Kerensky. It was nothing short of luck that an American woman with the special equipment of Mrs. Har- per was on the scene to catch the tre- mendous, fascinating event it hap a trained newspaper correspondent and a veteran campaigner; so she plunged into the midst of turbulence and violence, and with her eyes and ears alert for a story of proportions truly magnificent But that is not all; she has the dramatic in- stinct. the artists eye for color and move- ment and proportion and the literary | craftsmans feeling for the right word to l get to the reader the right shade of mean | ing. Runaway Russia" not only pre- sents the colossus in it's epic struggle for ] freedom, but tells the story with narra- l tive sweep that is breath taking and with | vivid flashes that print upon the readers | ina gination pictures that he will netei ] forget. The clean audacity of the authoi gives her book a gratifying distinction, 1 it is at the farthest remove from the dry

 For years he lived and worked in close contact with the liberal movement un- der the Tsars; he is a graduate of two Russian universities and professor at the University of Kharkoff; he has been leader writer of two Russian newspapers and editor of one; he was intimate ad- wiser of Count Witte.

 IAN AUTUMN SOWING"
 By E. F. Benson George H. Doran com-
 pany, publishers, New York.
 E. F. Benson whose charming stories are always delightful to a large ellen tele has never done a better piece of lit erary work than in An Autumn Sow ing.
 It is story which gets it's charm and power from it's careful and sympathetic characterization. In the treatment IS both satire and feeling. Thomas Keel ing a self made-man whose family give him no real companionship, is inwardly a lover of books, of the beautiful, and desirous of the graces of good breeding which he has had no chance to acquire. The story of his love for his secretary and her gradual overcoming of dislike for the strong, pathetic and misunder- stood man is a piece of masterly analy- sis. The setting is provincial town of England, realistically portrayed
