by A. Ralph Steiner '21 with a foreword by Homer Eaton Keyes. Printed by the Albertype Company, Brooklyn, N. Y. $2.00.
At various times in the past there have been produced pleasing pictures of Hanover and of the life of the College, but because of the small number of copies usually available most of us have had to be content with snap shots of the usual type or with such art as the picture post-cards afford. Mr. Steiner has therefore done a real service in bringing together in this volume some twenty-four Albertype reproductions of representative examples of his work with the camera while at Dartmouth. For detailed studies of the architecture of the buildings we must still resort to the postcards ; but in these few excellent prints there is conveyed a marvelously correct impression of Dartmouth College as it is, as satisfying to one who has known it for twenty years, or for four, as to the guest who has but a week to stay. It is not often that one can send for, and receive by mail, a permanent record of the fading impressions that he carried away.
We commend also the foreword by Mr. Keyes, as necessary to the unity of the series as is the binding, and as pleasing as the pictures themselves.
