This article discusses several books in brief. Some of the books are "The Voice of Norway," by Halvdan Koht and Sigmund Skard, "The French Colonies: Past and Future," by Jacques Stern, "McCarthy of Wisconsin," by Edward A. Fitzpatrick, and others. Colonel Fitzpatrick's book is a dignified, vigorous, and always readable introduction, to the career of an enlightened and warm hearted, man who might well serve as a model for the American public servant. Particularly disturbed by Wendell Wilikie's notion that the colonies must be given back to their inhabitants, Stern expatiates on French efforts at education, religious tolerance, and political equality among colonials.
