Tins CLEANER WIND. By Andrew Andrews. (Cape. 7s. 6d.)—This Gleaner

Wind opens with a wreck off the Scilly Isles, magnificently described. In all to do with the sea, Mr. Andrews' tale is alive and exciting. If his characteri- zation is ingenuous, it hardly merits the claim on the jacket that " What's more, the characters finally step out naturally from the tangle of very human lives." What's better, they don't.
