LANSBURY, GEORGE. These things shall be. $1 (5½c) Huebsch 261
In these six essays the author proclaims himself a revolutionist and downright hater of the existing order but he does not see salvation in a terrific cataclysm with hopes of a new order arising from the ruins of the old. He pins his faith upon a change of heart in individual men and women and in the message “Ye must be born again.” The spirit of the essays is faith in a God of love and in the teachings of Christ of human brotherhood and love and cooperation. Mr Lansbury is editor of the London Daily Herald.
