The Bulletin’s Day Book

Theodor Wolff, former editor-in-chief of the Berliner Tagebatt, is about to publish a book on the World War, entitled “Der Krieg des Pontius Pilatus.” It will be published by Oprecht u. Helbling in Zurich. The book contains three divisions; the first one deals with the policy of the German government prior the the War; the second part gives a description of the intellectual movements, internal conditions, and the most important activities and peronalities in countries which then entered in the war; the third part of the book is in the nature of memoirs.

Mr. Wolff was able, because of his nearness to events, to observe much more than others. He was a participant in certain political actions. The third part of the book particularly excels in dramatic tension and gripping vigor.

Unquestionably the book will arouse much attention and discussion. Fascinating style, fine sarcasm and intimate knowledge of men and events characterize this book. Mr. Wolff was the editor of one of the most important daillies in Germany, was a powerful moulder of pulic opinion, ad his editorials were frequently quotd in the in world’s press. His talents receive full play in this new volume.
