By Richard Hatch. Macmillan. Young John Bradford, when he ran away from the farm and shipped as a sailor in a . whaling with "one eye" Banks as Captain, found the sea quite different from what it had seemed \Yhen he watched the launchings of ~orth River ships and listened to the storie'.;; of the old sea captains along the shore. He soon · forsook the sea for the shipyards. where he learned that the way to get ahead was to he a little stronger than the next man, and to be ready to prove hi prowess \Yith his fists. Richard Hatch in a new noYel shows how this young Ke'" England boy developed. became a builder and owner of ships, worsted his · old CtlCtlly. the Yillage magnate. and carried off the girl of his choice. It is a character study with no little color and fire. IN THE I~IPERIAL .Comment on Current Books '!____________ _. THE CHIEF MODERN ~OETS OF ENGLAND AND AMERICA. By G. D. Sanders, Professor of English at Michigan State Normal Co11ege and ]. H. Nelson, Associate Professor of English in the University of Kansas. Macmillan. . Thi~ new anthology of contemporary poetry is significant in that it aims to present the work, not of the many poets of recent years, but of the distinguished few. These major poets are treated as individuals worthy of study in themselves and with distinctive ideas, manners, and methods, instead of as mere parts in the general movement. The aim is also to give a wide selection of poems of each of the poets included in the anthology, thereby enabling the student to become fairlv familiar with the manner, mood, and technique of the various writers. The book inclucles selections from E. A . Robinson. Robert Frost, Amy Lowell, Carl Sandburg. Vachel Lindsav. Edna St. Vincent ·~d illay, Thomas- Hardy, Robert Bridges. A. E. Houseman, \V. B. Yeats, John ~f ascfield. Alfred ~oyes, \V: \V. Gibson, \Valter Del La Mare. and numerous others.

I regard any mature reader who has a chance 1o read this book and does not, and who. having read it, does not pass it on among a dozen others, as a traitor to humanity."
