The autobiography of Sir Nor- man Angell. famous as a Nobel Pence Prize winner and as the author of The Great Illusion, The Unseen Assassins and many other books. has a particular rehevancc today. It is absorbing not only as a human story but because nearly all the aspects of the author's ex- tremely varied lite bear upon the major problems now confronting the world. It was here that he achieved the fantastic escape which is the theme of this book; and perhaps its most extraordinary feature is Thomas' sojourn. for almost a year, among the rocky eyries of the famous Mount Athos monas- teries. between which he was shuttted incessantly as the Ger, mans came and went, meeting with alternating bonhomie and irascibility from their eccentric- ally bearded and holy inmates. Finally he reached Turkey in a stolen boat. STAND-INS INN? WORLD LEADERS.
