When photographers outside clamored for him, Churchill came to a window with wife Clementine and gap-toothed grandchild Arabella. 7, daughter of Randolph.

...commonplace and predictable that the reader cannot help projecting it onto a big screen, with Gary Cooper doing a wonderful job as Lat Evans. But throughout These Thousand Hills there are fine evocations of what the country was like, the authentic sense of place that is Guthrie's trademark.

Misery is Buffet's trademark; if there is joy in color, it stays locked in his paintbox, and when he paints a flower, it comes out a dried-up thistle. "It is part of us, our youth of the war years, our youth which cannot escape from the climate of the war," a critic exclaimed several years ago. Buffet, who prefers to go on in glum silence, once explained: "I was eleven when war broke out. The misery of the occupation, the cold, the lack of food, all this has become everyday life to me . . .
