LIBRARY NOTES
Ten of the world’s greatest
writers combined their talents in
writing “Ten Commandments”.
Each author contributed a power
ful story based on cne of the
commandments in answer to the
Nazi assault on Christianity.
Skillfully written is Martha
Gellhorn’s latest novel, “Liana.”
A modern story of loneliness and
love with the sultry Carribean
Isle as a background.
Henry Bellamann has again
written a best seller, “Vic
toria Grandolet,” is a dra
matic story of a New England
girl who marries into a proud
Louisiana clan. The plot is wov
en about “White Cloud,” the
beautiful ancestral home.
For seventeen years, Leland
Stowe traveled over the world
covering news events. Thus he
is well equipped to write “They
Shall Not Weep”, a.stirring bonk
of war conditions in China, Bur
ma, India, and Russia.
