New York Times:

"It is fairly safe to say that no poet has written with such dramatic intensity. of the war. . . . You know when you read these poems that the author has been through it all. . . . There is an unflinching realism in some of these poems, but there is an unwavering bravery and hope in all of them."

ATLANTIC WAR BOOKS

From the many war articles appearing in the Atlantic Monthly, only those particularly worthy of more permanent form than the paper covers of the magazine permit have been issued as books. Each of the following titles offers a distinct addition to the best war literature of the day.

SHOCK AT THE FRONT

By WILLIAM TOWNSEND PORTER

Added to this, the unusual charm of the author's style furnishes another reason for the inclusion of this book in a collection of Atlantic war books. $1.25, postpaid.

I believe it is about as clear and powerful a picture of the real German menace as has been given. . . . Thanks again for sending it. It has given me more definite views than I had before as to what we were really going to attack, behind the physical armies.' $1.00, postpaid.
