A Proud Ptolemy

THE LIFE AND TIMES OF CLEOPATRA, QUEEN OF EGYPT--Arthur Weigall--Putnam ($5.00). The story of Anthony and Cleopatra, immortalized by Shakespeare, would seem so well known as to make repetitions unnecessary. Yet Egyptologist Weigall has created a book that all will delight in reading. His characters live again in the pageant of the past. He has entered the spirit of Egypt and has portrayed with consummate skill and a sympathetic pen the great characters that entered into the life of the proud Ptolemy Queen. It is a fine example of interpretive history, in which events are made the creations of human beings.
