1938 Saturday Review 28 May Louis Adamic, Neville Shute, Darwin, Llewelyn Powys

Description: Nice complete 24-page issue of the Saturday Review for 28 May 1938. A very good copy with a neat signature at top of the front wrapper. There is a cover photo of author Louis Adamic and his wife. Some highlights I find include: UNCLE SAM'S BEST SELLERS By Paul Bixler. WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE Reviews "My America" by Louis Adamic. DESTROYER OF A LEGEND By Homer W. Smith. Essay/Review of Charles Darwin: A Portrait, by Geoffrey West. JAMES FREDERICK GREEN Reviews "My Austria" by Chancellor Kurt Schuschnigg, who was later thrown into a concentration camp by Hitler and after the war moved to the USA. SLATER BROWN, "Town Drunk", (Poem) FLETCHER PRATT Reviews "The Thought-Reading Machine", by Andre Maurois. HENRY SEIDEL CANBY Reviews "The Ugly Dachshund" by G. B. Stern. "Modern Robin Hood": JONATHAN DANIELS Reviews "Kindling" by Nevil Shute. Also in this issue, a FULL PAGE AD for Shute's novel. OLIVER LAFARGE Reviews "Brazos" by Ross McLaury Taylor. MARQUIS W. CHILDS Reviews "The American Way" by David Cushman Coyle and others. EUGENE LYONS Reviews "Insanity Fair" by Douglas Reed. PAUL ROSENFELD Reviews English author and essayist Llewelyn Powys' "Earth Memories," a volume introduced by American author and critic Van Wyck Brooks. It's headed "Epicure of Nature." The back cover of this number has a nice history (with a photo) of the new Brentano's Bookshop at 29 So. Wabash Ave., in Chicago's loop, long since abandoned. It was once one of the great bookshops in the city.
