(Professor Phillips writes the story of Indiana's people, ...)
Professor Phillips writes the story of Indiana's people, preferences, standards, and growth. Chronologically, it follows Butler University Professor Emma Lou Thornbrough's excellent Indiana in the Civil War Era, 1850-1880, which appeared in 1965. Only three chapters deal exclusively with politics, and only one chapter is devoted to the First World War. Economic, educational, religious, literary, and related history will be found in nearly four fifths of the book-with agriculture, conservation, and labor among the broad subjects which are assigned a chapter apiece. The many maps, illustrations, and bibliographical contributions are first rate. And from the standpoint of an adroit balancing of statistical data and readable narrative, few works on the Hoosier land can be so confidently recommended. In short, Phillips' volume is at once a storehouse of facts to be exploited and admired and an appealing presentation delightful to peruse.
