...QUICK AND THE DEAD, by Thomas Wiseman. Wiseman's novel about the friendship between a half-Jew and a Nazi, before and during World War II in Vienna, is a brilliant psychological study of how two very different men can become so fatally entwined that each determines the course of the other's life...

Recently, the fastest growth has been concentrated in the quick-service food field. It includes such enterprises as the 93-outlet H. Salt, Esq.
