GOODHART, M.A. Fellow of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, lately Captain U.S. Army _Demy 8vo_. _About 10s. 6d. net_. A description of life in Poland by the counsel of the American Peace Mission to Poland. Emphasis is placed on the relation between the Poles and the Jewish, Lithuanian, Russian and German racial minorities. The book includes sketches of President Pilsudski, Prime Minister Paderewski, the capture of Minsk from the Bolsheviks and the Jewish pogrom which followed, the Polish Diet in session, the political parties, the battlefields of the Great War, and the rabbinical schools. The Forerunners By ROMAIN ROLLAND Translated by EDEN and CEDAR PAUL _Demy 8vo._. _8s. 6d. net_. In 1916 we had the pleasure of publishing "Above the Battle," a work by the author of "Jean Christophe," which immediately acquired a world-wide reputation. "The Forerunners" is a sequel to "Above the Battle." The precursors of whom Rolland writes are those of kindred spirit to the persons to whom the book is dedicated. It is published "in memory of the martyrs of the new faith in the human international, the victims of bloodthirsty stupidity and of murderous falsehood, the liberators of the men who killed them."
