The author disclaims all responsibility for his stories which he says
come to him “suddenly, like a flash of lightning all together.... I never
know, the day before, when one is coming: it arrives, as if shot out of
a pistol.” (Introd.) This exotic Hindu tale is half love-story, half fairy
tale, and depicts in the extraordinary queen, Táráwalí, a being half
male half female. It is in three parts: On the banks of Ganges; The
heart of a woman; and A story without an end.

“Those who have read Mr Bain’s other Hindu stories will not need
to be told of the unique place he now occupies in the world of letters.
Here the exigencies of space will permit us to say only that ‘The
substance of a dream’ is a worthy successor to the other and earlier
volumes.”
“You cannot say whether his style is artful or artless; but the words
make new associations for us, create an unfamiliar state of being,
though they are familiar words.”

Professor Baker has in this volume collected five American plays
chosen from the output of the last ten years because decided success
has been theirs, and they are worthy of professional revival, and
because the selection shows the greatest possible variety. In his
introduction he briefly analyzes each of the plays and ends his
general remarks on American play-writing with the assurance that
“We have the right to hope that the next decade will give us an
American drama which, in its mirroring of American life, will be even
more varied in form, even richer in content.” The plays are: As a man
thinks, by Augustus Thomas; The return of Peter Grimm, by David
Belasco; Romance, by Edward Sheldon; The unchastened woman, by
Louis Kaufman Anspacher; Plots and playwrights, by Edward
Massey.
“All the plays collected here are significant—all have added to the
pleasure of playgoing. This book makes their remembrance the
richer.” W. S. B.
“Four out of the five at least have interesting stories, and are
flawless in their adaptation to the theatre; but gayly as they trip on
the stage, they drag a little in the reading.”

“The poems have been written ‘at intervals since 1901,’ the author
says, and consequently their moods are various.” (Springf’d
Republican) “Love, children, the cause of woman all move her to
song. Among other pieces we have specially noted the well-handled
conceit called ‘Winter secrets’; the happy introspective fancy called
‘The lost one’; the truly heartfelt elegy for ‘The dead fore-runner’ of
the woman’s movement; and the delightful literary reverie called
‘The love of Elia.’” (The Times [London] Lit Sup)
“These poems are not all smoke. There are many glowing embers
and a few blazing coals. Mrs Baker shows something of antique
restraint and not a little of the newer and freer impulse.” C. M.

“Each is not only well chosen for its primary purpose of use in
engineering schools but might also be read, or read anew, by

“Combining the lucidity of the trained writer, the quick eye of the
reporter and the orderly reflectiveness of the born philosopher, Mr
Baker’s birdseye view of what is wrong with American industry is the
best book of its kind which has yet appeared.”
Reviewed by J. E. Le Rossignol
“Mr Baker’s writings are in more or less popular style which makes
them decidedly readable without detracting in the least from the
accuracy of the facts which he presents.”

The story tells of the material aid that the American Red cross gave
to Italy: at the front, in canteens, in assistance to hospitals, and in
helping refugees and the needy families of soldiers, but the emphasis
is put less on its achievements than on its contribution to a better
understanding between our two people and on the finer and more
discriminating appreciation of Italian character that our workers in
the field have invariably gained. Some of the topics are: The
American relief clearing house; The Baker commission, Red cross
emergency commission; Organization; Civilian relief and the “inner
front”; Cash distribution to soldiers’ families; Station canteens;
Rolling canteens; Surgical dressings; Hospital supplies; Hospitals;
Work with American troops in Italy. There are numerous
illustrations and statistical appendices.

“A sailor’s imaginary log, full of interest for boys and written at the
request of the U.S. Shipping board to promote in the younger
generation an understanding of the development of types of
American boats of commerce, of the interdependence of peoples and
of the importance of the merchant marine. Includes whalers, tramp
steamers and ocean liners.”—Booklist

“The dominant note of the book is its idealism. Judge Baldwin has
the fortunate faculty of seeing things at their best.”

“In this second book of Claude’s talks with his mother, we find a
considerable advance in thought. Certain chapters, such as that on
prayer, would be recognized for their worth, even if they were
entirely disassociated with this type of book.”

“A bit of verse for every day” says the subtitle, and, indeed, the
verses contain a cheery message for every day in the year, full of
courage, humor, sympathetic understanding of all human moods,
and good advice. The page decorations by J. R. Flanagan are in four
designs, one for each season.
“These little stanzas are full of the philosophy of good humor with
some real gospel messages.”
