HENDRIK WILHELM Lec turer and author. Bom in Holland, t882. Studied at Harvard and University of Munich. Associated Press correspondent during-the Russian Revolution and again during the World War. Has been a lec turer on history and history of art in various American universities. Was professor of history in the Univer sity of Wisconsin before the war and is now professor of history in Antioch college. He is the author of "Fall of the Dutch Republic," "Rise of the Dutch Kingdom," "Golden Book of the Dutch Navigators." He is better known for his books written for children "A Short History of Discovery," "Ancient Man and "The Story of Mankind." He has just been awarded the John Newberry medal by the children's Librarian's section of the American Library association "for the most distin . guished contribution to American literature for chil dren" produced within the year 1921 "The Story of Mankind." ; This book, which was written pri marily for his two young sons, has been enthusiastically . read by both children and grownups. J What and How He Writes "Van Loon tells the history of the world in a manner that young or old will nojt soon forget ' There is only one word that describes Van Loon's originality,' his subtle wisdom, his love and understanding of children, his re duction of complex material to lucid and dramatic sim plicity ; and that word is genius. His is the genius of a Lewis Carroll, a Jean Henri Fabre. "It is easier to read Van Loon's book than to describe it The author has taken the hardest not the easiest, way to his goal, for he deals primarily with movements and ideas, not with heroes and picturesque incidents. Never theless, the book reads like a fascinating story, told by a master story teller. Knowledge, humor, imagination are brought into play. ' ' . "Quite as delightful as the text are the numerous pic tures, drawings, sketches, maps, diagrams and cartoons, all executed by the author himself. The text and illus trations are one and inseparable; they illuminate each other and likewise reveal the author's original and almost . fantastic' personality. Some of the illustrations are -com- Dinarions or diagram, map ana cartoon,' and are cracjatagly funny." The Nation. ' ex- Authentic historical facts related in a. way that appeals to boys and girls v" and grown-ups, too. -v :?-7 Parents-will commend this to their children and read it for themselves. -V,v' ; First in News Features and, Photographs a
