Moving pictures are a vigorous entertainment medium. There has probably never been a moment in the world's history when more exciting things were going on than in 1939. That Hollywood can supply no better salute to 1939 than a $2,000,000 rehash, however expert, of Rudyard Kipling and brown Indians in bed sheets, is a sad reflection on its state of mind...
...went back to 1929, rehearsed as a confession the gist of his editorials publicly printed then. This seemed greatly to bore the judges.

S. historical problems. By no means easy reading, the books contain an abundance of statistics, detailed records of shifting English colonial policies, explicit accounts of those lawsuits, moral problems, market prices, class struggles and boundary disputes that filled the lives of God-fearing U. S. forebears. Major innovation is in the point of view. "To discover...
