340 pages. $3.50. Although the author, Wilder Penfield, is known as a surgeon, and neurologist, in his first novel Dudu, the jovial priest physician is minor character. The writer also, states that the book is a plot based on assumption that the pattern of men's behavior has not changed very much in four thousand years. The true fact is that Abram, later called Abraham was born in Ur among a people who worshipped many idols.

He left the country and eventually his people into handing down through them his revolutionary belief in one God. it is his God, the God of Abraham, that worshipped by devout Jew, Christian, and Mohammedan alike. The tale of the early life of Sarah, Abram's wife, is one of adventure, love and revolt. The descriptions of Western Asia in the dress of men in various occupations, and especially the costumes of women show research from archaelogical evidence. This book is a pleasure to read because of its simplicity; the only troubles were the wrath of the idols, internal unrest of various tribes in Ur, and the competition of Sarah and Shub for Abram, which all seems very simple compared with such problems today as the atomic bombs.
