A Remarkable

Human Document

- nothing else describes Yashka: My Life as Peasant, Officer and
Exile, by Maria Botchkareva, the wonderful life-story of a Russian
peasant woman, comparable only to a Joan of Arc in a Reign of Terror,
who, in four years' service as a Russian soldier, saw Bolshevism in action;
actually participated in the events leading to and following Russia's
downfall, and was in close touch with the present ruling powers. It is a
moving, human narrative and, we believe, a great historic document.
¶ Clemenceau: The Man and His Time, by H. M. Hyndman, is a
sincere, able life of the Tiger of France. It is significant that Clemen-
ceau's biographer should be a recognized leader of British socialists,
as well as a staunch friend and devoted admirer of the "Young Man
Who Will Never Grow Old."

Isaac Don Levine in his readable The Resurrected Nations: Short Histories of the Peoples Freed by the Great War and Statements of Their Claims, gives the histories, with all the important facts, of Poland, Armenia, Palestine, Jugoslavia, etc., etc. The working knowledge of these liberated peoples which the book affords is a vital necessity to all who are concerned with the new world problems.

A veteran of thirty-two years' service in our Navy and Army, Chief Yeoman Will Stokes, collects his poems for the first time in Songs of the Services. His poems of Army and Navy life, covering three wars, have won for him the title of the Kipling of the Service.

Alfred Noyes's Walking Shadows, sea tales and others, is winning for him a secure place as a master story-teller in prose.
