The publication this week of The Legion Book (Cassell, 21s.)

will undoubtedly interest all readers of the Spectator. The book, in the preparation of which the Prince of Wales has taken a personal interest, is a collection of essays, stories, poems, and drawings from the most prominent pens and pencils in England to-day. It is intended to be " a practical appreciation of the British Legion and what it is doing for ex-Service men and their families.", We are told that the proceeds of the sale are to be given to the British Legion as a thank-offering for the recovery of the King. We hope next week to publish the review which this enterprising production merits.
