It is the pleasure that comes of seeing a task done with consummate crafts- manship, with a mastery of tech- nique that must inspire lesser dab- blers in the art of words with a despairing reverence. To each of his novels Hergeshelmer has brought the equipment and the high sin- cerity of the true artist. There is nothing skimped or jerry-built about them. They are as near perfection as it is in Mr, Hergesheimer’s power to make them. “Balisand” adds one more fine characterization to that select gal- lery which includes Linda Condon, Taou Yuen, and Jasper Penny. With = leleure! inevitable touches Mr. Hergesheimer has etched in the portrait of Richard Bale, warrior: aristocrat, until he stands out more vivid and real than many a flesh- and-blood acquaintance of everyday. He has not only created a man, but has re-created an age. The world {n which Richard Bale moyes —the world which in turn moves on and leaves him haughtily aloof and self-suffictent—{s no patchwork stage-setting. It {s post-revolution- ‘America. By just what alchemy, cunning massing of detall Mr. w Hergeshetmer achieves this com- plete identification with a past epoch it is hard to say, But the illusion is complete. For so many hours as he may require to peruse the chronicle of Richard Bale the transported to. Virginia and which ended the 18th y and ushered in the “19th, the time the quarrels of Fed- eralists and Democrat-Republicans © more real than those of Old |Guard and La Follettistas. He 1s a century and a quarter distant, watching the fumbling hands of an Jinfant commonwealth finger the ge new toys of independence and democracy and popular rule. There 1s an fronie felicity in Mr. Hergeshelmer'’s conception of Rich- ard BaJe, stiffnecked aristocrat, standing firm in his allegiance to the man Washington and to the ancient theory of “noblesse oblige” while the unruly populace storms | to new experiments which he ss anarchic and disastrous. He once pathetic and admirable. at Hoe has helped overthrow one order, but he thinks the foundations of his world aro crumbling because others decline to view the resultant order as sacrosanct and eternal. He is the type of the eternal conser- vative, the more memorable because he is limned against the flux and chaos of a nation’s birth struggles Parallel with the story of Richard Bale’s fealty to an obsolete political order is traced the story of his un- willing allegiance to a perished ro- mance, They are but two faceta of the same crystal. The loyalty that enshrines Lavinia's memory in his heart is essentially the same that binds him to the governmental and moral code of a dying aristo- cracy, Again the note of drony fs strong in the confilct between this memory and the duty ho feels he owes his wife and- the real love which he has for her.

On page 7 Mr. Purdy sends a reply in kind ranging up the hill toward a young man later designated as Bud Shan- non. Bud being no hero, the reply lodges in his chest, and for the next 362 pages he remains in the hospital. Don't conchide,«however, that his retirement materially depletes the consumption of jead and powder in El Valle de Los Ojos Negros. Cattle- raisers in Arizona, Mr. Kyne informs us,’ are distressingly near bank- ruptey, but munition dealers and indertakers must be making mil- tons. There is enough bloodletting n his latest novel to cure the South- west of every “humor” in the roster of the old pathology. The plot is a time-tried and ser- viceable one. Mr. Kyne knows his readers and those of Cosmopolitan Magazine too well to attempt to sell them a novel f{dea. Someone covets Lee Purdy's land, for reasons that are not divulged until the final chapters. Failing to buy it by fair means, they decide to remove Mr. Purdy from the scene. Wherefor the obliging bullet which opens the book and this review. It is the first of a migratory arsenal. There !s a girl who misunderstands and reviles Mr. Purdy for some chapters and falls into his arms in the ante- penultimate paragraph. ‘Thero are two stalwart henchmen who share with Mr. Purdy the heroic pre- rogative of charmed lives, There is even the good old watch which opportunely halts a bullet destined for a henchman’s heart. Why don't villains carry watches instead of re- maining so distressingly vulnerable? In one particular, indeed, Mr. Kyne’s story does digress from the traditional trai] of Western thrillers. Lee Purdy is one of the first cow: men in fiction to round up his steers and his foes by airplane and to cow a mob bent on lynching with the cold logic of a machine-gun instead of the fervid mgaic of oratory. For these innovationg he deserves all credit. “The Enchanted Hill” is as read- able a fable as any for those who don't care particularly about prob- abilities.
