Little Alnerica-Richard Evelyn Bird
Taking it's name from the base es-
:ablished on the Ross Ice Barrier,
Little America is Admiral Byrd'S
personal account in chronological
sequence of his expedition to the
South Pole.
The story begins with the first
plans, the preparations, the voyage
TO the Bay of Whales, the settlement,
the long winter and the flight to the
Pole on Thanksgiving Day. mas
much as the problems of polar ex-
ploration attempts to solve them, tie
book has many characteristic features
of previous exploration accounts. But
the combination of planes and
sledges, radio and dogs, make an ex-
citing, vivid and readable story of
adventure. Byrd, the modest, calm
leader, who brought every one Of his
men out of the Arctic again, manages
to set down very little about him
self.

Scientific volumes to appear later will
cover the technicalities of the expe-

Waters Under the Earth-Martha
OstensO
Martha Ostenso has renewed the
/ theme of her earlier novel, wild
Geese: A tyrannical father, and his
children's fear of him. Obviously.
such a story must be one Of depres-
sion, as, one after another, the grow
ing children are defeated. Miss Os-
tenso's ability to create and sustain
mood exceeds her ability to produce
a story that is vigorously alive. For
tunately the tale ends on a cheerful
note, when Carlotta, the youngest,
escapes, to carve her own future.
Miss Ostenso may be depended up
on for a well-written, honest, plausi-
BILE and absorbing story. waters
| Under the Earth" is o intricate,
| subtle and skillful than her previous
work.

her place among the screens fore
