This article presents information about various books. The republication of Maurice Baring's book "A Year in Russia" is to be welcomed at the present moment. It was a significant year that Baring recorded in his diary, a critical year in Russian history, for in 1906-1907 was enacted the first act of the drama which came to a climax in March 1917. Summer is the time for Red Cross plays and pageants, a season of rapture for children, though too often one of dread for parents and teachers. Virginia Olcott has tried to help solve the problem of suitable plays for such occasions by preparing nine little scenes in the book "Patriotic Plays for Young People."
