Rezensionen / Stimmen
" No other critic was more engaged in the Kulturkampf of the times or more strate-gically placed to observe the stories of the warring intellectual platoons . . . [the book] conveys the intellectual excitement and moral fever of the period." - Daniel Aaron, New York Times Book Review
" A rare and exciting collection which makes me want to re-read at least a score of the books from that time." - William Hogan, San Francisco Chronicle " Think Back on Us is a memorable vol-ume." - Louis D. Rubin, Jr., Washington Evening Star
" The book serves the purpose for which Professor Piper edited it- to give young people some idea of what the Thirties were like. . . . One thing undergraduates are bound to learn . . . is that the decade is not to be summed up in a single generalization." - Granville Hicks, Saturday Review
" A priceless review of the 1930s... a carefully selected, beautifully readable collection of essays, reviews, and editorials which reflect the times at its best."
- The Oregon Journal
