The autobiography of Gerald of Wales, translated from the Latin, offers a compelling picture of medieval life. Gerald of Wales, the son of a Norman Baron and the grandson of a Welsh Princess, is one of the most gifted and entertaining of medieval writers. His autobiography, translated from the Latin, presents the story of an Archdeacon who, despite his passionate efforts, never became a Bishop; it is the self-revelation of a man as able and courageous as he was vain and eccentric, and as devout and serious as he was flamboyant and humorous, a vivid picture of twelfth-century kings and prelates, of politics and travel, full of strange adventures at home and abroad, told with frankness and power, and without a counterpart in the literature of his day. Moreover, the volume presents a vivid picture of medieval life in general. The late H. E. BUTLER was Professor of Latin at University College, London.

With the notable exceptions of Raul Hilberg who put the number of Jewish deaths at 5,100,000 and Gerald Reitlinger who proposed low and high estimates (4,204,400 to 4,575,400 victims) most authors concur that about 6,000,000 Jews were murdered in World War II, the majority of them with poison gas in death camps or by mobile shooting units.The specialists of the Holocaust have generally reached their counts on a per-country basis, which poses a problem since, from 1938 onwards and after the end of the war, Europe was subject to many border changes. The number of victims advanced often comes of subtracting the number of survivors in various countries after 1945 from their prewar populations. The literature is thus full of double counts of victims between the USSR and Poland, and also between Hungary, Romania and Slovakia. Reliable sources giving precise vital statistics on European countries and correct Jewish immigration and refugee figures for the 1930s and during the war, notably into Africa, Asia and Latin America, are yet available. Official sources in German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, Polish, Romanian, Hungarian and Russian abound, allowing for rectifications of blatant gaps in the historiography of the Holocaust.Making use of many sources in several languages and studying thoroughly the death tolls of death camps, shooting units or attrition in ghettos, the author has been able to find that the number of Jewish victims was very close to Gerald Reitlinger's high estimate, proving the latter author to have been, in this respect, the most accurate Holocaust scholar.

During a forty-year career that began in the mid-1930s, Gerald Warner Brace wrote short stories, an autobiography, award-winning essays, and eleven distinguished novels. While Brace's approach to fiction was essentially realistic, he experimented with narrative perspectives and sub-genres and was one of the most versatile writers of his time. In addition to being a master craftsman, Brace was an estimable thinker. His books offer unique insight into the intellectual trends and moral conflicts that troubled thoughtful Americans in the middle decades of this century. Forgetting Brace's achievement would be a serious loss to American literature.
