that. In the course of the book she
is made to write two of Miss jane
sons past novels-"Cousin Honore'
and 1.-The Fort" She also is presi-
dent of English P E. NJ, a position
held by Miss Jameson since 1888.
And still other achievements in the
authors career are attributed to
the heroine. One cannot but see
the novel has been written with
photographed intent.
It's purpose seems to be twofold
to present the author heroine in
relation to her past and to set forth
her views on the present, which is
the world at war. The novel takes
the form of a journal kept from the
years preceding the war through to
early 1943. It's style is so labored
that it is impossible to read it with
out impatience, but the effort of
the book as a whole is memorable.
The tragedy of war rings out of it
like the clashing of discordant bells.
The contemporary part unQues-
tionably is the most effective. Here
you have the folly and cruelty of
war portrayed in manner which,
even today, when war books are
uncountable, is poignant. The pure
ly personal part Of the fictionized
biography, however, is less satisfac-
tory.

The expedition was Capt. Eaton's
own idea and he had talked the
Navy into giving him the nucleus of
his force-a group consisting of all
of eight Marines. The rest Of his
force of 500 men he had recruited
himself, Arabs going along for hope
of loot and of the most doubtful
loyalty.
The story of how the young officer
drove his lawless mercenaries
through 500 miles of desert, holding
them together and moving them on
by sheer force of character, is truly
one of the great tales of American
arms and Josephine Young Case
tells it well, with full appreciation
of is heroic character. Sad, though,
is its ending. For when the gallant
captain was finally victorious and
had displaced the usurping Bashaw
and hoisted his flag over the city of
Derne, he was robbed of his triumph
by the politicians back home. They
concluded a conciliatory peace. He
was forced to withdraw, after con-
graduating the Bashaw on his VIC

Americans and convinces them that
Americans are good. He turns in
and works on their farms, he teaches
them to spray their vines, he organ
ICES them into a cooperative.
There are holdouts against him
but, little by little, he brings them
into camp. 1t is explained that their
initial hostility is not toward Ameri-
cans as such but toward all soldiers,
all rulers and conquerors, for they
have known such men only as de-
spoilers since the beginning of their
history. But under Eddie's tactful
tutelage they come to see that
American soldiers are different.
It Is nice little story.

listed as private in the Air Corps,

reflects a WEAKNESS with the purely
military side of war. Anyway, it is
a story of gentle transactions be-
tween Italian peasants and> Ameri-

idealism has directed its compost

what too large share of the ingre-

It is the story of an American
