Skillfully stressing the strong influence of public opinion, the author places responsibility for America's "too hard and rigid" policy not on the Administration and a party only, but on the whole nation. 254 pages, $4.50

Donald W. Treadgold Associate Professor of Russian History UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON

i^rom Iskra, Nicholas II and Lenin, to Sputnik, national coinniuiiisin and Khrushchev is a long- and winding path. In 20th CKNTURY RUSSIA, Professor Ireadgold presents a clear picture of the change that brought Russia from a half-literate agricultural state to the enormous indtistrial power whose shadow blankets the tvorld today. Not only has the political scene been portrayed, but also the transfor mation in social and culttiral life. The book is divided into four parts:

(1) I he Early Growth of Russian Communism an

(2) Lenin's Rule and Stalin's Seizure of I'uwer

(3) Stalin's Rule Before World War II (4) The U.S.S.R. From the Beginning of World War 11 to the Present For his sources. Professor Treadgold has not relied entirely niton ofiicial Soviet te.xts, but also upon the reports of Russian emigres, foreign travelers and correspondents, and the results of research by Western scliolars. Maps, ilhistrations, and bibliographical notes guide the student through the maze of modern Russian history. 575 pages 6" .r 9" illtts. probable price S7J10

A Yankee Jeffersonian Selections from the Diary and Letters of William Lee of Massachusetts Edited by MARY LEE MANN. In France as consul from 1801 to 1817, and in Washington's governmental circles for the next twelve years, William Lee was a keen observer and astute recorder. This volume not only pro vides fresh views of Jefferson, Madison, Napoleon and many others, but contains detailed descriptions of such unusual events as the disastrous fire at the wedding celebration of Napoleon and Marie-Louise, and the story of Christopher Hughes—who delivered the Treaty of Ghent to President Madison, but completely consumed the President's wine consignment en route.

Lucretia Mott By OTELIA CROMWELL. The first detailed and comprehensive account of the famed nineteenth century reformer often regarded as "America's greatest woman." Involved with almost all the liberal movements of her time, the soft-spoken but forceful Mrs. Mott preached free religious in quiry, attacked many social dogmas and conventions, and sought freedom for the slave as well as rights for women. A good account of Lucretia Mott and her influence has long been overdue, and Miss Cromwell's book should prove invaluable to all students of nineteenth century social problems. $5.00

Great Basin Kingdom An Economic History of the Latter-Day Saints, 1830-1900 By LEONARB J. ARRINGTON. The Mormon dream of building a true kingdom of God was a part of a great American dream. Their experiment in group economics, too, can be regarded as a more explicit formulation of the total American experience. For economists and social scientists, this is an invaluable study of an "under-developed" American economy; for his torians, an exploration of one of the most neglected phases of American history; and for students of religion, a comprehensive treatment of one of the few native American religious movements. I9.00 : The Middle Years, 1877-1891 By ERNEST SAMUELS. In the Education, Henry Adams seemed to dis miss twenty of his most active years with the statement: "Education had ended in iSyr, life was complete in 1890." This second volume of the biographical trilogy begun with The Young Henry Adams probes deeply into those creative, tragic years. From such new sources as Adams' un published letters to his wife, a striking diary fragment and correspondence among the other members of Adams' circle, Mr. Samuels has reconstructed the definitive account of Adams' relationship with his wife, her suicide, his embittered labors on the history, his unhappy passion for Mrs. Cameron and his ultimate flight to the South Seas, a belknap press book $7-50 Coming soon .. .

THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC by RICHARD HOFSTADTER, WILLIAM MILLER and DANIEL AARON

Retaining the crisp, lucid style and the taste and simplicity of exposition that was responsible for the unprecedented success of The United States: The History of a Repub lic, this new two volume set offers even greater coverage of our country's develop ment as a nation.

More than just an expansion of The United States, all the material has been thoroughly re-worked and brought completely up to date through the 1958 elections. Three new chapters (one cultural and two economic and social) have been added to the coverage of the 20th century. In addition, there are new chapters on Jefferson, the West before the Revolution, and the Constitution.

Remarkably well balanced, THE AMERI CAN REPUBLIC slights no important facet of American history—economic develop ment, westward movement or foreign affairs.
