This powerful and much-discussed novel, though written in the winter of 1917, could not be published until recently owing to the action of the Censors. It is a study of the character of two brothers, both of whom are faithful to their ideals—the one dying on the field of battle, and the other falling a victim to his harsh treatment in prison as a Conscientious Objector. The story has been splendidly received, and the whole press has joined in condemning in most indignant terms the folly of the Press Bureau in withholding the book so long from circulation. Mr. Begbie himself, in a vigorous Preface, gives a detailed account of his negotiations with the Authorities, and this lends additional interest to what is not only a fascinating novel, but a work that will possess much historical value to the future student of England during the Great War.
