July 23, 1930 issue

The article gives information about several books. In the book, "The Constitution of the United States: A Brief and General Commentary," by William Bennett Munro; the author takes the various provisions of the Constitution one by one, in the order in which they stand in the document, and comments briefly upon their origin, meaning, and implication. William McFee's new book "North of Suez" is reminiscent of a very fine novel, his own "Command." "The Return of the Hero," by Darrell Figgis is a splendid choice for the first of the Boni paper books to be placed on general sale at fifty cents.
