Stimson, Julia C. (Julia Catherine)
World War, 1914-1918 -- Hospitals; World War, 1914-1918 -- Personal narratives
“A brilliant and suggestive volume.... For the popularization of what is
most genuinely liberal in the best general thought of his tone, Mr.
Wells has assuredly no equal.”--_New Republic._
“Most stimulating perhaps of all the new books about peace.”--_Boston
Post._
“He represents better than any one else, perhaps, the reactions of the
war of the keen-thinking, broad-visioned English publicist.... His
function is to turn upon his subject the searching light of truth,
directed by a keen and active mind.”--_The Independent._

MASEFIELD’S AMERICAN LECTURES
The War and the Future
BY JOHN MASEFIELD
Author of “Gallipoli,” “The Old Front Line,” etc. _$1.25_
This volume contains the two lectures which Mr. Masefield delivered in
this country in 1918. Their subject matter has been widely discussed,
relating as they do to the war and its successful prosecution and the
future of war, and there will doubtless be many who will welcome the
opportunity of possessing them in permanent form.

“What Mr. Masefield did in print for the Gallipoli campaign he now does
for the campaign in France. The new work measures up to the standard set
by its companion both in vital interest and in literary
quality.”--_Philadelphia North American._
