I just received two copies OF

timer, Mrs. Effie Sonderman, who
lives on Route 2, Kennewick. Now
on page IA of the December Is

wick did not exist back as far as
1889. How wrong he is, and

were all poor homesteaders, there
was no bridge across the river.

my mother at my birth. /
Our homestead was just up the
river short way where the river
bank is low. That was one of
the places where the wild horses
from the Horse Heaven hills
could get down to the river for
water.
Mr.. j. j. says. that Kennewick
cid not exist in 1889. That it
was just good rabbit hunting. I
admit that there were lots of rab-
bits, and also lots of "big worms"
with rattles on.

they built the bridge across the

two decades, or even single decade,
of our cultural development are so
thoroughly inventoried and illus
trated from the original documents,
literary and graphic Gf only the pic
lures, a superb selection, were
largerD. In matters OF detail there
is some for complaint. The author
is so distrustful of the general reader
as to be unduly repetitious in his
exposition; he is forever inventing
tsuperfuous islns-"reactionism, ia
tionalistic objectivity and observa-

in one large paragraph sentences
culled from various portions of an
18th century text is unsatisfactory,
since the reader looks for a con-
tinuity that is not there. But there
is much more that is excellent and
enlighting, and the chief criticism
to which Seeds of Liberty is liable
concerns its theoretical framework.
Few would deny that the America
of ITO was by and large a free
country, perhaps the freest in the
world, that it was on the way to
becoming a freer one, and that in
six years a majority of its inhabi-
tants would rise in open revolt. But
the question remains how far the
idea of liberty is valid or useful
and a single criterion to interpret
and judge all the diverse aspects
of culture. One may 60 further
and ask whether one does not defeat
oneself by approaching historical
culture with too much of a nation
