This article presents information about various books. Perhaps it is significant not only of changed public feeling, but of the feeling among diplomats and soldiers, that publishers tell the popularity of the personal war record has gone by, that the books of historical comment and practical suggestions for reconstruction are now in demand. The book "The Black Watch," by Scout Joe Cassells, is a typical thriller. The book "Life in a Tank" is described by Richard Haigh, commander of the tank Britannia. He and his companions left the infantry for the tank service because there seemed to be a better sporting chance with a shell than with a bullet.
