The article focuses on the book "American Inquisitors: A Commentary on Dayton and Chicago" by the author Walter Lippmann. In "American Inquisitors" Lippmann has created another example of fine art of the startling mixture of charlatanry and sincerity which is represented by the anti-evolution laws on the one hand and the anti-truth-in-American-history laws on the other. It so happened that Lippmann was invited to give the Barbour-Page foundation lectures in the University of Virginia in 1927 which now make the present book.
