Reviewed by Eileen Hall Diplomats visiting in Latin America invariably remark on the social unrest and complex economic problems that they observe there, warning that communist agents are trying to shape these restless forces to their own ends. The Boga- ta Conference called for “a speedy effort ... in economic and social progress,” in order to preserve and strengthen democratic institutions. Presi dent Kennedy’s proposed Peace Corps, however, has called forth much controversy. Those who criticize it point out that, for more than a cen tury, Catholic and Protestant missionaries have been doing what the Peace Corps is sup posed to do, motivated not only by patriotism and human- itarianism but also by dedica tion to the highest cause of all, preaching Christ’s gospel to every creature.

In spite of an uneven style, Father Lyons who himself served for thirteen years in Peru and Bolivia, has present ed the story of his fellow- Maryknoller in a manner that will appeal to the eager ima ginations of young people. He shows them many facets of this quietly heroic life that is within the capability of most young Americans to imi tate, yet infinitely beyond any human calculation in its value. PERSONAL PROBLEMS, edited by Kevin A. Lynch, C.S.P., Paulist Press, 1961, 128 pp., 75c. WHAT ABOUT YOUR DRINKING? by. John C. Ford, S.J., Paulist Press, 1961, 128 pp., 75c. Reviewed by W. L. Schmidt In an effort to inform Cath olics particularly of the nature and origin of many personal problems, and to offer solu tions, the magazine Informa tion has for some years run numerous articles on them. The more significant ones have now been gathered toge ther in “Personal Problems.” Here Betty Smith tells how and why she became a “di vorced” Catholic. Carmel Martinez writes of the impos sibility of a really happy mar riage without outward signs of love. Father George Hagmaier, C.S.P., goes into detail on the reasons for strained emotional relationships in marriage. Oth er articles include a very sym pathetic discussion on confes sion for the fallen-away Cath olic; the subject of a young man leaving the seminary; and the proper understanding of the problem of alcoholism. But anyone interested in un derstanding the problem of drink and the drinker should obtain the book “What About Your Drinking?” This contains easily understandable scien tific facts on the subject, tell ing how beverages are made, and their reaction on the body under certain circumstances. Many bugaboos are dispelled, land may lie for days in the frozen white grip of snow; along comes the “chinook,” the snow eater, and before your eyes the snow doesn’t melt particularly, it just evaporates, and the land is liberated. In the Swiss Alps, the classic Foehn, hot dry and dessiccat- ing, and a brother or at least a cousin of the chinook, clears away winter snows, ripens fruit in fall, and can bring warmth and prosperity and just as readily the terror of flood, hot, gale winds and tin- berbox conditions that' ever threaten and sometimes de stroy whole villages in con flagration. Servicemen with duty in North Africa, Sicily, and south Italy may have experienced the sirocco. Depending on just where it was experienced, their accounts could and would truthfully vary. Tornadoes, hurricanes, ty phoons and monsoons, and one of my favorites, the Tehuan- tepecer, are all covered in Brown’s book, which, all con sidered, is a marvelous over view of one of God’s great cre ations, the winds in which He wrapped the world. Back in March 1888, an un seasonable storm blew into the eastern seaboard and for days locked that area in its icy grip. Werstein has taken a fancy to that respected event, has re searched it, and has sketched it out in fair detail. People were not expecting the storm, they didn’t take it very seri ously when it was on them. But it was momentary master. Some people just walked home and just walked to their death; others sought to pass the time away in saloons where some mighty brawls were brewed. Some New Yorkers walked across the heavily frozen East River from Brooklyn to Man hattan; profiteers charged and collected 5c for the use of a ladder to get from the pier to the ice and, on the other side, 10c to get them from the ice to the pier. The storm wreck ed all communication; it drove the then familiar overhead wires underground. And Sister Irene at New York Foundling Home, “re vealed that for the first time in the history of the home, not a single baby had been left either Monday or Tuesday when normally, three to seven infants were either abandoned or placed there every day.” There is daily drama in a drop in barometric pressure and in a drop in temperature.

For readers who have known Lake Superior or any one of her four sister-lakes, William Ratigan’s Great Lakes Shipwrecks and Survivals will evoke memories overpowering in their nostalgia for the in land seas. The episodes built around each of these lakes personify forces of Nature that “even the summertime sailor who wants to enjoy another season treats with uninter rupted respect.” The Great Lakes captains and their crews provide epic-tales that can’t fail to awaken responses in a generation which commonly shares the exaltation of soar ing through space. Beginning before the era when “people caught boats as casually as they do planes today,” the au thor relates in dramatic se quence account after account of man’s daring and fortitude. The reader will be stirred to new appreciations of the land and people he counts his American heritage. Here is more than a recital of vital statistics on practically every shipwreck since La Salle’s Griffin. Rather, its tone suggests a poetic insight into those intimate associa tions of land and lakes, of sail ors and people along the shores of each. One relives the practice of checking positions by the smell of cherry blos- • soms off Grand Traverse Bay and noting the time it took the boat’s whistle to echo back from the Pictured Rocks. The “years with the blackest bor ders” and the phantom Otta wa drum sounding out the death toll from Emmet County are as vivid as the Carl D. Bradley’s “Mayday! Mayday . . .” The mariner’s laconic “She sailed through a crack in the lake,” the “ghost patrol of flying Dutchmen,” and “No canny Scott ever paid in ad vance for a round-trip ticket on Lake Huron!” are typical of Ratigan’s style. Great Lakes Shipwrecks and Survivals is a book to be own ed and picked up again and again. The power and strength of Reynold FI. Widenaar’s pic tures have captured the dra ma of the long ships in their encounters with the fury of the elements on the Great Lakes. They heighten the impact of the narrative with each suc cessive reading. Master of the techniques of his media, Wide- paar uses them powerfully to portray each memorable dis aster and to create in the read er deep insights into their challenge for man. MORAL VALUES AND THE AMERICAN SOCIETY, by Richard Cardinal Cushing, Daughters of St. Paul, Boston, 1961, 40 pp., 2,5c.

CHRIST IN BETHLEHEM; CHRIST IN THE EUCHAR IST, by Richard Cardinal Cushing, Daughters of St. Paul, Boston, 189 pp., $3.00. A series of conferences giv en by the author over the years on Christ in Bethlehem and in the Eucharist. The story that never grows old is told again, but the stress here is the connection between the first event, and the daily event that takes place in the Mass.

A pictorial presentation of the Mass, illustrating the pos ture and position of the priest during Mass as directed by the rubrics of the Missal, and con veying something of the mean ing of the Mass.

Naturally, there will be more than usual emphasis on the Civil War for school children this year. The years 1861-1865 are an important part of our national heritage, and they make up one of the most stir ring and tragic periods in American history.

A good book for after school enjoyment will do its part to make battles, reasons, people and events vivid to any youngster. The Searlef Raider by Jos eph B. Icenhower is an histori cal novel centered on the ever fascinating Mosby’s Rangers. There is fast moving adven ture and a lively picture of Confederate daring and cour age.

The Gray Sea Raiders, by Gordon Shirreffs is a good sea story. Confederate Midship man Clinton Wallace meets with all kinds of danger, in cluding a very believable escape-at-sea.
