A Nobel prize winner, Sir Norman
has worked for peace. but not for
peace at any price. Twice in this
century, when the chips were down,
Great Britain and the United States
have decided belatedly to fight
rather than to see their national
security seriously jeopardized! That
decision, made in time, might have
prevented World Wars I and II. Sir
Norman fears that World War III
may develop out of repetition of
the mistake.
We must admit that the world is
divided into two economic and
political systems, and find way
to live in peace despite that fact,
he says. Russia's power lies where
Hitlers lay, in the disunity of
those who would oppose her expan-
sion. Only a demonstration that
the western democracies can unite
for mutual defense is likely to shake
Moscow's deep-rooted conviction
that western civilization is on the
verge of collapse and predispose the
Soviet government to a cooperative
relationship.

EAGLE IN THE SKY

Reviewed by
ROBERT K. WALSH.

-
History, with an exclamation
point. runs so lively and revealingly
in this three-cornered, thrill packed
novel that it almost steals the thun-
der from the fiction.
Plots, characters and condolences
stretch from Boston to Yorktown in
the last years of the American Revo-
luton. They move by way of the
West Indies, West Point, Down East
Maine and a lot of other directions
where a romantic as we'll as geo.
graphic twain can meet.
Eagle in the Sky" scars high and
far as. a full -blooded story. But
its prize values are its faculty for
making history a principal instead
of prop and in bringing to popular
light the medical practices and the
difficulties of practitioners of that
era.
Mr.. Mason, Baltimore resident
and obviously a born researcher,
turned out narrative that teens
with action over land and sea, in
barroom and drawing room, on
battle ground and dueling ground
and at plenty of other strange
grounds or familiar rooms.
His major achievement was in
having characters breathe the very
air and fire-and vast amount of
brimstone-of the desperate years,
1780-81, in the embattled but war
weary Colonies.
On New Years eve, in 1779, Asa
Peabody, from a poor Maine fishing
town; Peter Burnham, son of a
Connecticut merchant, and Lucius
Devoe, ambitious youth of uncertain
background in Jamaica, receive their
physicians certificates after train
ing with a Boston doctor.
Burnham becomes surgeon on a
privateer. Devoe serves as an Army
doctor at West Point under the COM
mand of Maj. Gen. Benedict Arnold.
The high-principled Peabody has
many low-spirited moments from the
ock-bound shores of Maine to the
redoubts at Yorktown.
In so entertaining and expertly
written a book it would be captious
to note how often the main charac-
ters happen to- turn up at approx
mate historical hot spots, as if to
exclaim: Look! History is being
made!"
Mr.. Mason, however, never per-
mits real or imaginative parsonage
to bore or deceive the reader. He
gives his Williams redeeming quail
tiles and his heroes and heroines
human failings or foibles. In fact,
some of his creations seemingly had
to be kept down or killed off to pre-
vent them from dwarflng interest
in the main characters or clogging
the main currents.

The diminutive size of Holland has
never stopped her from taking her
place in the great trade routes of
the world and in the battles for
freedom. The Dutch have relied
many times on the protection of the
dykes, not only to keep out the ever
encroaching sea, but also to foil an
enemy by releasing torrents OF salt
water over the fiat countryside.
Anna Van Breda lived during the
turbulent era OF the 18th century.
She saw the Spaniards on her soil,
in her village. Twice during her
lifetime the dykes were to play a

Anna rescued and tended the

so as an act of Christianity, not of

THE GOLDEN SLEEP
BY Vivian Connell. (The Dial
Press, NeW York, S3.)
The jacket blurb on this novel &C
claims it as "even more daring than
THE Chinese Room" by the same
author. Not having read his former
opus, we cannot take issue-but II
true, the Room" must have been
tame fare. Presumably the story OF
the loves of one Calvin Spring, this
novel rambles tediously through a
welter of unconvincing dialogue,
with only few action shots to keep
the reader awake. The love affairs
are mostly kept alive by sheer
doggedness-a wearisome way to
keep passion at white heat. When
the last page is reached the reader
is left with a feeling of having
wasted time that could have been
put to better purpose. However, 1t is
possible that Mr.. Connell has
dreamed up a good remedy for In
