HARP OF A THOUSAND
STRINGS
BY H. L. Davis. William Morro1D
G. Co.; So
H. L. Davis imaginative interpre-
tatlon of history is no less unique
than his position in American let
ters, which was assured by a single
novel, Honey in the Horn" winner
OF both Harper and Pulitzer Prizes
in 1885. He takes the view-heret-
ical for these times-that an eX-
cursion into the past should yield
something more than full-color
slides of boudoir scenes of yester-
year, and in this superbly written
novel undertakes to show how a
memory of beauty led three scoun-
drels to found an American town
and name it for Therese de Fonte-
noy, a controversial figure in the
French Revolution.
The cohesive element in this
sometimes involved study of a re-
verberating impulse is irony, which
explodes into garrulous humor
when Mr.. Davis deals with the
three old reprobates turned found
ing fathers, and flows quietly in
sardonic speculation as he records
the duplicity and opportunism which
carried Jean-Lamber Tallien, a rev.
olutionary propagandist, to the pres
idency of the National Convention
He was motivated by. love for
Therese. whom he meets again In
company with three refugee Ameri-
cans In a North African warehouse
during the war with Tripoli in 1901.
Commodore Robinette. Indian Jory
and Melancthorn Crawford hear out
Tallien's tale of empty power and
love betrayed, but 1t is Therese S
gesture to make amends that fires
them years later in the American
wilderness when they have suffered
every deprivation and disappoint-
ment.
Mr.. Davis style, perfectly tenn
pered instrument, has a scriptural
ring and disciplined radiance. He
requires the utmost concentration
of his readers but the rewards are
an increased consciousness of the
continuity of history and the pleas
ures Of exceptional prose. There Is
no one quite like him writing today

Although he was too myopic to
go off to war, George Cliatt, teacher

was a fighting man. True, he
didn't get into uniform, but it took
as much courage to do his kind of
fighting as it does to face the
bullets of the enemy. For he stayed
at home and fought abuse of power
by intrenched political interests,
endangering his own career and
economic future.
George wasn't personally involved

jail because the latter had said
something against the local political
