BOOK REVIEWS 



TIMBERS and Their Uses, by Wrenn 

 Winn. E. P. Dutton & Company, New 

 York. Price, $5.00 net. This is a hand- 

 book for woodworkers, merchants, and all 

 interested in the conversion and use 

 of timber. Thirteen years ago Roosevelt 

 called wood an "indisputable part of the 

 material structure upon which civilization 

 rests" and in this comprehensive work the 

 author includes a list of all known woods 

 useful for any purpose; their geographical 

 distribution; a survey of the world's re- 

 sources ; parasites and insect pests of tim- 

 ber and the formation of wood and how to 

 season and test timber. The book is 

 illustrated by a series of ninety-six new 

 photographs showing the grains of woods. 



"Many, Many Moons," by Lew Sarett. 



Henry Holt and Comany, New York, 



Price $1.50. 



For ten years Lew Sarett worked in the 

 North Country among the Indians as a 

 guide and woodsman. Out of the tall 

 timber of the land of K'cheemagee, he 

 comes with this book, "Many, Many 

 Moons." In it he has captured the spirit 

 of the wilderness and of its Indians. He 

 divides his book into three parts. The 

 author, known among the Indians as Pay- 

 shig-ar-deek, or "Lone Caribou," devoted 

 Part 1 to the medicine chants, the primi- 

 tive love songs and dances of the Red 

 Man, a peculiar contradictory type com- 

 bining droll humor, tragedy, and beautiful 

 spirituality; one moment a bizarre char- 

 acter stamping and grunting, bedecked in 

 the finery of eagle feathers and a battered 

 derby, and the next a "child of nature," 

 who knows her every mood and who sings 

 and talks to her in the language of winds 

 and waterfalls. In these poems are new 

 melodies, the weird tunes of the medicine 

 rattle and the tomtom, and the woodnotes 

 of the Indian flute. Part II is a lyric in- 

 terlude devoted to the wood sounds, and 

 scenes which the Indian knows, rather than 

 to the Indian himself. In it the wolf, the 

 white-throat, and the loon utter their night- 

 cries. Part III contains a group of humor- 

 bus and tragic council talks, unusual dram- 

 atic monologues. The book concludes with 

 a tragic note as the Red Man, in a vivid 

 allegory, drowns beneath wave after wave 

 of white men. 



Opie Read says of Sarett: "Poetry is 

 older than Egypt and younger than Okla- 

 homa; it is man's eternity of sentiment. 

 They tell us that there is to come the poet 

 of business, of science, of the worry called 

 progress, but there is but one poet, the 

 never-dying poet of nature. Among the 

 poets arising, none gives more of graceful 

 and healthful promise than Lew Sarett. He 

 is true because he is of the woods, his 

 muse a perfumed breeze, sweetly murmur- 

 ing. The gathering storm of nature throbs 

 in his verse."
