“It seems to us that the ultimate criticism of Mr Keynes’s book will be this, that it is the criticism of a man who is occupied with and interested only in one part of the work. For the political side he appears to have little interest or understanding.”

“This is far and away the most significant analysis of present conditions in Europe that has appeared. There is one omission from Mr Keynes’ analysis which seems somewhat remarkable. He nowhere speaks of the effect upon economic conditions now or in the future of the enormous expansion of the British and French colonial empires. Moreover, it seems to us that the situation Mr Keynes so vividly pictures requires more radical social, economic and spiritual treatment than he himself proposes.”

“He writes in the style of a propagandist, albeit one more amusing than the average, and he displays the bitter propagandist’s predilection for the intermingling of true and false. Mr Keynes’s book is pernicious, for it spreads the impression that the entire work of the conference was rotten to the core, and it excites complete mistrust of the treaty.” C: Seymour

KILMER, MRS ANNIE KILBURN. Memories of my son, Sergeant Joyce Kilmer; with numerous unpublished poems and letters. il $2 Brentano’s
20–10008
“The ‘Memories’ consist of a faithful transcription of a mother’s diary to reveal her son’s ‘baby mind,’ a small budget of verse not given for their ‘worth as poems, but rather to show the throbbing of a mother’s heart’; and the letters of the son to the mother covering the years from 1906 up to within two days of his death in action on July 30, 1918. These form fully three fourths of the book.”—Boston Transcript
