“Mr. Vincent informs all that he sees with his own joyous temper, and gossips of men and things in a spirit so frank and candid, yet so free withal from malice, that he would be a dull soul indeed who failed to catch the infection of his gaiety. Besides the light-heartedness to which he confesses in his preface, the writer brings to his task, literary acquirements of no mean order, a genuine love for the county of his adoption, an eye for the larger effects of nature, and a happy ease of style.”

Vinci, Leonardo da. [Drawings of Leonardo da Vinci], with critical introd. by Charles L. Hind. (Drawings of great masters.) *$2.50. Scribner.
“As Mr. Hind remarks, Leonardo da Vinci found in drawing the readiest and most stimulating way of self-expression. One welcomes with pleasure the extremely clear and fine renderings of some fifty of the drawings in this volume. The critical study by Mr. Hind is discriminating and sympathetic.”—Outlook.
