A FINE NEW BOOK. Here is a volume tor all readers who found the books by Van. Paassen, John Gunther, and W. L. Shirer so interesting. •'THUNDER AND THE SUN” BY VINCENT SHEEAN. A compassionate, brilliant, and often terrifying account of a world at war, by the man who wrote "In Search of History” (Personal History). W. L. Shirer says: "I thought ‘Personal History’ was the best book of its kind written by an American Correspondent, but this is even better.” THIS BOOK covers the period between 1935 and 1942, a period which 'began with Italy and Ethiopia, China and Japan at war and ended with almost the whole world engulfed in war. Sheean was in Vienna when Hitler inarched in; in Prague when Hitler took Czechoslovakia: in France when it fell; in Britain from Dunkirk to the end of the Blitz. Since then he has been observing in Australia, New Zealand, Malaya, Burma, Singapore, Chungking, Manila, Hawaii, and Wake Island. The great personalities as well as the great places of these dramatic years come into his account. 340 pages. 22/6, WHITCOMBE and TOMBS, LIMITED, Booksellers, Stationers, and Printers, CHRISTCHURCH.
