This article presents information on the book "Memoirs of Leon Daudet," edited by and translated by Arthur Kingsland Griggs. This memoir on Leon Daudet who is a phenomenon unknown, inexplicable, in America, a man at once a rowdy politician and a literary figure. As to the rowdiness of his political methods, no one need enlarge upon that. Daudet and his camelots du roi have been sufficiently in the press. As to his sincerity, there is a question. Perhaps he is as sincere as any politician. In Paris one is told that Daudet, having failed to make headway in the parties of the Left, took up royalism as a shrewd business move.
