I read portions of this book slth a greet deal of interest p*rt of my inlerest being due to the faet that Iihave rather recentJ.y visited many o f the lslands deecribed by the author, and part tc the occa.sional rneally excetlent descriptions and historical feste lsrilich go to malre up the volr&re. fhe author teIls that his purpose in writing this book is to destro;r erroneo i:,e ldeas of the West lndies and to pOint Ehere ie no doubt that this book has out lheir attr*ctj.ons. rnany good points. 1t i s firl I of iuagination, picture sew, tho occasionally flowery, descripti ons, interesting facte, both historical and relatlng to the comnrercial or industrlal activities of the natiyes. Among the best i may mentlon the acco i.arts o1' Sant,a, QrJZ, lfevi s, Saba, $ontEerrat, $omenic*., Barbados and San Ihmingo and Ha.iti. Han]. of the ot,hers, hcwerrer, lack graphic, indldual det&.i.le. The autlior &.oses;tatei-effgcts by freguent repetltioB,eyen uslng whoLe phrases whlch are allke in deccribiag tho dlfferent islands. Thus also, he losee the fu11va1 tp of his details by putting in too many, as well as by maJring them eff usive and ratkrer pretentiotrs at ttmes. 0f course it 1e inevitable that in a series of essays some will be better than others, "bul ifi seeme to me that several of tlrese articles stand o ut very prominently from araong a good Hany tather sitxilar s,nd mgraphlc sketchee. For exa,mple, Barbados, theughtperha,ps a trj.fle 1ong, hag interesting livg nativee, bits of inforr:ation about the various polnts of tntereet being given in a, hr"morous vein. It seems to me wrfortunate that the author did not ad.opt this policy throughout tne book, instead of only in sBotg. th.e travelg Trould make far better read.ing and imprees themselves rvith more vlvidness upon the le*der if the author told about the ielands more casually, more personally,"givtnbgi more interesting lncidents cf travel;and Lese description. As the arthor him.' self eays, no one carr sonvey an ad.equa*-e lmpresslon cf these wonderf ul islands by attemptlng to describe thern, and if , instead of pi ling aaSecti vi rf*on ad jecti ve , sixsi ie upon slmile often excellent in th.emselves, b,rt lostng porrer and becoming tedious from tl$*r- s{i;erlative repetitions - if more $ere 1ef t raneaid and wordslof *hprhi.ghest degree of, pralse used less 1anishly, it aeems t,o se that rhe tBlinde woirld become at once $ore real and more picti:reeq,Je to the reader ipho has never Eeen thern.

A good old-fashtoned pirate story' for:.nd hid<l-en away on one of the islancls in the Cariltrean Sea. the accorrnt of the pirate "Red. Leg"'s life is tol-d autoliographically. It is ful1 of thrilltng incidents f:'om the time ulren Geoffrey 0reaves escepes frOm sl.avery in the Barbados by boeirding a plrate Ship where he swears to hecome a pirate anfi his na:ne is changed to Eed. Legs, to his peaceful end surrounded by his best friend aricl his chtld a"nong private citizens sesura in.his pardon by the Eing.

if boys eti11 like sush a Sirate story, I think this 1s a goodne - it ie exciting anrl tloody; ihere is'tlioodi' blood, brrckets of blood", f ights, prisons, earthquakes and alrmst everythiag one couid. reasonably expeet. *f course if boys' stories of adventure are ai present confined to anecd-otes about the war, this hoOk is a trifJ.e out of t1ate - refreshiagly so, in fact' - it tffirg respleadent with the gtrarnour and romance of the d"ays when ptrate shipa cruised the $panish }iain and were the terror of the high sea.s.
