IMSS REPPLIER'S LIFE OF DR. J. WILLIAM WHITE
HISTORICAL NOVEL
IS COMING BACK
Peter the Great and Frederick
the Great Among Person
alities Pictured
The Roodly proportion of historical
novels In the ll't of new books scemi
to show a definite return to tbe costume
tvpe of fiction. There are enough of
them sccmlnglv to Indicate a trend
toward the romantic past for fictional
mnterlal. The situation i rnther in
teresting if It mean that the public,
which ii today In one of the Brent history-making
epoch of all time, seeks
tn relax hv rorerting to the past It Is
paming strange that these historical
nneli cpin to outnumber tho formal,
(.prions novels inspired by the great
war
Chronologic-illr. the firt of the group
is "Spenri of Destiny," which dates
back to the first capture ot Constanti
nople, with iti earlier scenes laid in
the exdtlng events of the Fourth Cru
sade The hero, son of one of Itlchard
l.ionheart's followers, sets off on n
mission to rescue his father, meeting
ninnv cjtriting adventures between I'ng
land and Constantinople. One of the
great figures in tho book Is that of the
Venetian Doge. Dnndolo. The style is
rich and picturesque and the author's
powers of Invention are unflagging.
Peter the Orent of Russia and Charles
XII of Sweden arc the outstanding his
torical figures projected by Marjorie
Howen in "Kings-at-Arms." In this
interesting novel Miss Howen seems to
have recaptured some of tho old rap
turous romance that made her first his
torical novel, "The Viper of Milan,"
if memory serves, one of the best sellers
a dozen or 60 years ago, when the writer
was a girl in her teens. This book, with
its carefully "documented" social nnd
political backgrounds and Its intensively
studied personalities of the great pro
tagonists, is n much more subtle nnd
solid also accomplishment. Miss Bowen
has in the interval written a dozen his
torical novels, none of them an "Ivan
hoe" or "Queen's Necklace," but all
of them readable and some of them
brilliant. Her practice has qualified
her with a recreative historical imagi
nation, and her personages are alert and
active not mere puppets. Her new
book is highly interesting.
H. C. Bailey, whose "The Highway
man," published earlier in the season,
was a bully good story of eighteenth
century England and Jacobite plotting,
has written another charming romance
of older, more adventurous and courtly
das in "The Gamesters." Unlike the
writers of the two previously mentioned
books, he does not center his interests
on historical persons for principals, but
devises a delightful pair in a fetching
woman and her brother, whose wits
are their livelihood. They are involved
in intrigues in an eighteenth -century
environment, their hazards of fortune
taking them from place to place among
the small German courts of the time.
Gaming, swordplay and intrigues of so
ciety, politics and love make a rapidly
moving talo.
"The Duchess of Siona" also be
longs to what may be called the "ideal"
class of historical fiction, in thnt it does
not develop the careers of notables but
projects Active characters, in their own
particular drama, against the back
ground of n historic period. In this
case it is the hot-blooded, hectic Italian
Renaissance. The story is quick in
movement and highly dramatic in its
concerns of intrigue and warfare.

LA TE DOCTOR WHITE
AS A HUM AN BEING
Agnes Repplier's Biography of
His Personal Rather Than
The long-heralded life of the late Dr.
J. William White by Miss Agnes Rep-
pllrr has just come from the press of
tho Houghton-Mifflin Company, of Bos
ton. Miss Reppllcr Is on old friend of
the distinguished surgeon, and has had
access to his papers and his diaries.
Her story thus has the authenticity
which comes from personal knowledge
and from documents. She has not at
tempted to write In detail of his career
as a surgeon. There are only Inciden
tal references to it. She writes of tbe
man, nnd the greater part of the vol
ume is filled with accounts of his relax
ations. Considerable space, however,
is given to his extrn-professional activ
ities. The book will be particularly Inter
esting to the men nnd women who
knew Doctor White, but it will have a
wider appeal for the reason that there
is much in it about the distinguished
men whom the surgeon called his
friends. Among these men of world
wide fame arc Theodore Roosevelt, Sir
Frederick Treves, Henry James, Kd
win A. Abbey and John Singer Sar
gent Tlie book is full of anecdotes.
Thcrw is the one about the Sargent
portrnit. Doctor White, when his
friends and former students planned
to present to the medical department
of the I'niversity a portrait ot him,
asked Sargent if he woujd paint it. He
wished to appear in the scarlet and
blue ncademic gown of Aberdeen Uni
versity, which had conferred the degree
of doctor of laws on him. Although
Sargent had abandoned portrait paint
ing, he consented. Doctor White went
over to London for the sittings, and
when he arrived he was bronzed from
exposure to the sun on shipboard. When
the painting was brought to America
nnd hung at the winter exhibition of
the Academy of the Fine Arts Doctor
Keen stood before it on the night of
the private view end noted the Malayan
complexion.
"Don't tell me that the leopard can
not change its spots," he remarked.
POULTNEY BIGELOW
FLAYS PRUSSIAN ISM
"Prussianism and Pacifism"
Typical of His Impetuoiu
Prsonality
In whnt his foreword intimates may
be his Inst book, Poultney Bigelow dis
sects, discusses and despises the two
"conquistadorc" Wilhelms. Pmsslanisrn
nnd pacifism has to do with the chron
icles of Hohenzollernism from the flight
ot the first Wllhelra, later the first Gtr
mnn emperor, from Berlin in 1848, to
the similar vanishing from the same
plnce in lf)18 of the second William,
eventually the last German emperor.
If this Is to be the finish of Mr,
Blgelow's career as a lltteiatcur one
ennnot say historian, for although he
has written on historical subjects, he
has neither the balance nor the tem
perament for a successful historian 'tis
pity it una penned lor it is a singuiariy
intemperate, ill-humored and irenetic
book. All the impetuous and tempestu
ous quality of Mr. Blgelow's earlier
works are found to a degree in this new
work. It scolds and it is intolerant of
other viewpoints. One does not have
to be n friend of Prussianism and an
nrtvncnte of Dnclfism to feel unsympa
thetic toward this book, the text of which
is necessity of drastic handling of the
Boche forever and a day, and the need
of unremitting vigil, presumably armed
against new power-lusts of a renascent
kultur.
Mr. Bigelow, of course, capitalizes
again his now familiar experiences and
associations gained in Germany and
elsewhere on the continent through first
his father's career as an American
diplomatist and. later through his own
traveh.
The book has some suggestive and
stimulating passages, particularly of a
monitory nature, which deserve con
sideration ifnot absolute and immediate
acceptance.

the Famous Surgeon Deals With
With His Professional Life
"for White has certainly changed his
skin."
Mist Reppller tells how Doctor White
persuaded Abbey to visit Switzer
land. The artist did not like moun
tain climbing, and he induced the sur
geon to take lessons In drawing from
him. Doctor White labored long and
faithfully, but finally confessed thnt
he could not draw anything that was
recognizable or of the right size. "If I
try to sketch a rowboat," he said, "it
looks like an ocean liner or a pen
nut." He runs across the late John G. John
son in Switzerland and finds that John
son is as averse as Abbey to mountain
climbing and spent his time reading
novels and playing solitaire.
On one occasion in London he found
himself seated at the same table with
tbe lata Doctor Munyon, "from whom
he fled as from the pestilence," says
Miss Reppllcr, and she quotes some
Indignant comments that he made. He
attended a religious service at St.
Paul's in London, nnd disliked the ser
mon because tho preacher "mixed up
religion" with it. When he bought a
farm in Delaware county for his re
laxation he was constantly irritated
during the period of its rehabilitation
for his occupancy. Whenever he
thought of it he exclaimed, "Oh, hell!"
His friends began to speak of the place
by this name, and suggested that it be
called by that title. The name pleased
the doctor, but a less suggestive title
was chosen when Mrs. White said that
she could not very well have the other
engraved on her note paper.
The book is filled with this sort of
detail, which, when massed together,
produces a lifelike picture of the man
about whom she is writing. She has
included three illustrations. One is a
reproduction of the Sargent portrnit,
another is a reproduction of Thomas
Eakins's painting of Doctor Agncw's
clinic, in which Doctor White appears,
and the third is a conventional photo
graph of Doctor White in his later
years,

Mare Nostrum
By VICENTE BL ASCO IB ANEZ, Author of
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Blood and
Sand, The Shadow of the Cathedral, and La Bodega.
The New York Tribune says:
"In his new book the author of 'The Four Horsemen of the
Apocalypse' has swept upon a great panoramic canvas a picture
whose tremendous proportions make the masterly lines of his first
success seem puny. . . . The narrative takes Ulysses from his first
sea experience as an officer on a small trade vessel to the climax of
all his childhood dreams as master of his own ship. . . , The book
inspires a eulogy. It is comparable to nothing we have ever read oi
the sea, and as a novel it is tremendous."
