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 Shock at the Front' is not a medical treatise, but the story of varied experiences at the Front, written by a physician whose profession has offered unusual opportunity for observation and whose quick appreciation of the humor, pathos, and tragedy of the war scenes has produced a particularly interesting record of his travels. 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. HEADQUARTERS NIGHTS By VERNON KELLOGG So accurately has Vernon Kellogg described the attitude of the German General Staff, so convincingly has he told of his conversion from a pacificist to a believer in this war to the end,' that an American volunteer in France acknowledges the receipt of his book by saying: The book has left its mark upon me, I am sure. 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. THE WAR AND THE SPIRIT OF YOUTH By MAURICE BARRÈS and others In three striking articles a French man, an Englishman ard an American interpret the hopeful spiritual trend of the times.
