A Pet Subject
"LOOKING FOR TROUBLE" is the apt and modest title of Virginia Cowles's book published by Hamish Hamilton (12s 6d.) The author is the bril liant young American journalist who has succeeded in being on the spot in Europe during the last four years whenever there was any trouble brewing.
She saw the war in Spain from both sides, was in Czechoslovakia at the time of the Munich crisis; flew to Berlin a few hours before the outbreak of War; went through the Finnish campaign; left Paris just as the Germans arrived, and took part in the Battle of Britain.
