This article discusses the book "Last Changes Last Chances," by Henry W. Nevinson. For readers in the U.S. there is more of living interest in this third volume than in either of its predecessors, rich and various as those are. The last changes and chances here described come within the recent memory of us all, and the book includes a gallery of brilliant word portraits. Nevinson is a writer of very fine quality. He is incapable of a dull page, there is not a paragraph in the whole narrative that is below his own high level, he combines, in the telling of every incident and the sketching of every character, an objective attitude of mind with an intimate touch that is altogether distinctive.
