OverviewTo the people of the middle classes who had begun to doubt whether university professors were deep thinkers or keen observers, this book will offer great enlightenment. It is the most serious book of the year and the most important in dealing with those things of the American mind on which the future of our country must depend. Professor Canby emphasizes, and with reason, our unsophistication ; he does not, however, sufficiently accentuate that unsophistication of the American learned classes which seems to make them depend so entirely on the written word. He is a living exception, apparently, to that habit which amazed on their return all persons who had been near the war, of referring the most vital questions to books and using their statements as irrefutable evidence.
