purse-strings to the bounder time
and again. But if she is deceived
about him, she is equally deceived
about herself, and therein lies
half the charm of Mr.. Cary's
portrait. Tabitha sees herself as
a high-minded creature cruelty
buffeted by fate and supremely
reasonable. When Bonser leaves
her with child, she matter-of- :
factly accepts the patronage of
an aging art lover whom she
bullieS into financing an emanci-
pated review of the Mauve Dec
ade. The strictest of mothers in
the nursery, she is in the drawing
room a leading literary hostess,
quick as the next one to de
nounce marriage as crime
against love-"
With her marriage to another
wealthy patron-this one an &C.
centric inventor. and with Bonser
off the scene for a perilously long
time. the story says badly. For
quite q stretch, Mr.. Cary, more
the social historian than the
novelist. describes the pioneer
aviation industry and the onset of
World War I, while Tabitha vege-
tates in the country.
"The Ground and Sky,"
When Tabitha's son marries "a
female public meeting Of q wom-
an" and produces a granddaughter
whom Tabitha is forbidden to kiss
things pick up, and the character
ization of Tabitha comes into
focus again. Her relations with
the granddaughter, who COM
bines the worst features of herself
and Bonser are the most delight
full part Of the book. And when the
old rogue reappears on the scene
with his ready reproaches Tabitha
succumbs again. Having subjected
her to every humiliation and in
dignity in his large repertory, he
dies, and she realizes that he has
indeed been "the ground and the
sky of her life"
The evolution of Tabitha from
f1ighty girl to fretful grandmother
Is masterfully done. Though not
quite the fun of his previous
Horses Mouth" "A Fearful Joy''
shows again the fullness of under
standing, ease of invention and vi
tality Of creation that make Mr.
Cary an outstanding contemporary
writer Of traditional novels.

Peter Nelson, young West
Pointer, who served in World War
II and later left the Army after
q court-martial, has come to train
troops for Alvarez at the invita-
tion of the generals son Jose
who fought in the big war beside
Peter. Nelson is the central char
acter. But he is less vivid than
Alvarez. The middle-aged gen.

for music, but no thinker, is a
sharp portrayal. So is his secre-
tary- adviser, a minor French
novelist named De Cluny, a cynical
fellow who feels that there must
be some relation between bad food
and bad government in Central

The Complete Detective. BY Ru-
pert Hughes. (Sheridan House;
S3.50.)
One of the nations leading
private detectives. Raymond c..
SCHNEIDER, gets a full-length por-
trait in this admiring account by
an old friend. Equally admiring
is Erie Stanley Gardner, who
prefaces Mr.. Hughes biography
with a description of Mr.. Schin-
dler's work in the famous De
Marigny trial in the Bahamas. In
the role of "Dr. Watson" the
biographer recounts two dozen
SCHNEIDER cases ranging from un-
masking corrupt officials to saving
the accused but innocent. Mr..
SCHNEIDER, as Mr.. Hughes sees
him, is at once the protector of
the weak, preventer of crime and
avenging fate. His adventures
would make any fiction sleuth
