•Here is a parade of interesting
and colorful, bu^ hardly appealing,
characters in a setting of French
Revolutionary days.* Only the
first few chapters are a glimpse
of the herror that was Paris in
that dreadful reign of mob
violence. Most of the story is laid
in Saint-Domtngue. land of exile
for French, aristocrats, like Mmc.
Dejcan, who dreamed only of re
turning some day to the gay court
life she had known as a girl.
Her husband, M. HypolUo De
jean. owned a sugar plantation,
but Antoine, their son. was the
only member of the family with
strength enough of character (??)
(o snatch the whip from his
father's hand and actually use it
on the backs of laggard slaves.
There are his tfro sisters, Louise,
selfish and arrogant, but displaying
unexpected coinage in the crisis;
and Emilie, who wore her piety
on her sleeve and found it pretty
flimsy when put to the test. And
there’s Mancttc. the family's de
pendable servant, Who knew the
right thing to do at Hie l ight time.
And of course, Eugenie, weak
where Antoine was concerned, hut
strong when her dream ended and
she faced vengeful reality. Miss
Magaret's characters and setting
are more vivid than her story.

SAVANNAH, LIBERATED
MARGARET BRENT, ADVEN
TURER, by Dorothy Fremont
Grant, (Longmans, Green), $2.50.
If you're interested either in a
fascinating novel, or a glance at
the history of colonial Maryland,
first of all the American colonies
actually to grant religious liberty
and practice tolerance, Mrs.
Grant's book, released last Octo
ber,, is a perfect prescription for
your needs. She is the author also
of "War Is My ravish” which we
told you about in December, and
"What Other Answer?” published
earlier last year. Prolific is one
word for her 1944 record: and, to
resort to the slang of the day,
"tops” is another. All three books
are splendid.
"Margaret Brent. Adventurer,”
is a combination of fiction and His
tory. You'll enjoy the love story
of Margaret Brent and Leonard
Calvert, governor of Maryland;
and you'11 know, better than all
the history books ever (old you.

Though he is only a minor
character, we especially, like Ihe
priest, Abbe Lefranc, who had the
interests both of the masters and
the slaves at heart; who "never
sanctioned evil, but who refused
to be shocked or even surprised by
it.”
THE ART OF LIVING JOY
FULLY, by Henry Brenner, O. S.
B„ (’the Grail). $1.00.
Was it St. Teresa or her name
sake, the Little Flower perhaps,
tWe're always forgetting who said
these lovely unforgettable things),
who made the remark, "Deliver
me from long-faced saints”? Why.
when you stop to think of it, should
being a saint make anyone any
thing else hut radiantly and
superbly happy?

the subject of remaining on the
bright side, regardless of the upts
and downs of every day life (and
who doesn't need it?) we heartily
recommend Father Brenner’s,
charmingly brief sermons in his
happy little hook, “The Art of
Living Joyfully.” lie talks to the
reader in simple language, and
shows tfiat the "art” is valuable
psychologically and even physical
ly, as well as spiritually.
We discovered to our delight
that it’s a book which will make
a perfect gift for many of our
dear, non-Catholic friends; for
while thoroughly Catholic, it
touches no controversial subjects.
It will do them, and us, a world
of good lo read it.
