Abstract
THE Anglo-Saxon race always tends to look westwards in time of trouble, and it has usually found comfort there. Horace Greeley's famous advice, “Go west, young man,” expresses a deep-seated feeling which years of emigration have only served to intensify. Once again the West is looming large in the history of civilisation, and this time the Allies are looking there for food and men. The books before us deal with the agricultural conditions, and are, therefore, assured, of a hospitable reception from agricultural students.
