history goes back thousands of
years - it was already a Canaan
ite fortress long before the first
coming of the children of israel.
Now its imposing mosque, its
slender minaretS and vaulted
bazaars recall the oriental
Splendor of the late 18th century,
when it was built after the style
of the former Turkish capital. The
two Ottoman governors who
brought about the rebuilding were
Shiek Daher el Omar and his
successor, Jezzar Pasha, after
whom the city's beautiful mosque
is named.
The preservation of Acres early
history has been neglected. But
now a half-forgotten Turkish Bath
with a multi-colored stone floor,
the 160-year-old Hamman ell Bacha,
has been transformed into a well
organized museum. On display
are tools from the Bronze Age
(25O0 to 1900 B.C.) and archaelog-
ical relics from Hellenistic, Roman
and Crusader times. The Crusad-
ers used Acre, situated in the
lower part of the eastern coast OF
the Mediterranean, as the chief
port of the old Kingdom of Jerus-
alem.
For the modern periods, the
town itself is a living museum.
It Is dominated by its thickwalled
fortress which even Napoleon could
not conquer. On his march from
Egypt farther east and possibly
to India--which he never Complet-

and forced to retreat by Jezzar

town. With the partition of
Palestine, the Arab-Jewish war
of 194S and the subsequent popula-

and II, 500 Jews. In general, the

Biography Of Aaron

Aaron COPELAND, whom many
consider Americas outstanding
composer of our time, is the SUBJ
ject of an ably compiled bio
graphical sketch, under the title
Aaron Copeland" written by Ar
thur Berger and published by Ok
ford U. Press Ola 5th, NY. III.
The composer is fortunate that
his biographer not only knows and
understands his life but also can
be considered an authority on his
type of music.
Copland's background, his IA
theirs arrival in this country and
his settlement in Brooklyn, the
fact that music is the last thing
that could have been connected
with his farnily's interests, his
genius at the piano and his subse-
quent triunphs in the musical
world are told in interesting fash
ion, by Mr.. Berger, who has him.
self specialized in music.
Musicians will derive special
satisfaction from the extensive ex-
plantations of Copland's compost
tions. The list of Copland's works
is most impressive, and the reader
will learn with amazement that
the number of articles and books
by COPELAND nearly match the
large number of his compositions
which run into many scores.
Musicians will be especially
thrilled with this biography, in
which the average layman also
will find much satisfaction.
