Guerard, Albert | June 2, 1956 issue

add to cart   close window

The article discusses books and authors. Author Frank E. Manuel is a scrupulous scholar and a realist. But he is too good a scholar to sneer at a power of a different order; be seeks to understand; and there can be no understanding without some degree of sympathy. A difficult and fascinating subject, handled with spirit, thoroughness and restraint in his book "The New World of Henri Saint-Simon." Henri Saint-Simon has been described as the most remarkable man of his times. The book makes an interesting read.
