This article presents a list of some books. In "A Bookman's Daybook," the writer, Burton Rascoe, with enough curiosity to kill nine cats, made his way into every gathering where literature was being plotted. "Quakers in Action," by Lester M. Jones presents a comprehensive and enthusiastic summary of the Quaker work for human brotherhood, ranging from the war-time work in France, the child feeding in Germany, Poland, and Russia, to relief work among the Pennsylvania miners and the effort of young Quakers to find in peace crusades and social service some peace-time moral equivalent for war.
