From the dustjacket: "Liberal literary journalist" perhaps best describes this robust and reassuring figure in American letters. His range of topics is wide, his style vigorous, his thinking clear and straight. This book displays him working at his trade, discussing such varied topics as semantics, the Battle of Gettysburg, patterns of American sentiment and the function of unconscious phantasy in fiction! These papers are a selection from those written for the two magazines with which Mr. DeVoto has been most closely identified during recent years-the Saturday Review of Literature and Harpers Magazine. There has been a steady demand that many of them be printed in permanent form, notably "A Passage to India", "On Moving to New York", "Writing for Money" and the genuinely humorous "Liberation of Spring City." Absorbing, polished and urbane, "Minority Report" is a gratifying reassurance of health in contemporary thinking.
