"The book will live and will set hundreds of teachers and social workers and philanthropists to work in villages and cities throughout the country.... Whatever our feeling as to the remedy for starved and half-starved children, we are grateful for the vivid, scholarly way in which this book marshals the experience of two continents in awaking to the physical needs of the children who are compelled to be in school though unfit for schooling.... School teachers need this book, social workers, librarians, pastors, editors, all who want to understand the problem of poverty or education."—William H. AlleninThe Annals of the American Academy.

"H. G. Wells presents what is probably the most alluring statement of the claims of socialism that has ever been put forward. The book has all the charms of Mr. Wells's style. He suffuses with the subtle grace of poetry and humor statements which in the mouth of any one else would be commonplace and dry. He does not offend. He does not rant. He studies to be genial, sensible, and sympathetic; he succeeds in being all of these things."—New York Evening Mail.

"The chapter on the growth of Socialism has been completely rewritten in order to bring it up to date.... He is singularly free from the exaggerated statement and declamatory style which characterize the writing of so many socialists, and the concluding pages of the present volume show him at his best.... None have surpassed Mr. Kirkup in philosophical grasp of the essentials of Socialism or have presented the doctrine in more intelligible form."—The Nation.

"It is a vivid, running characterization of the foremost personalities in the socialist movement throughout the world. Such a book does real service in presenting the truly significant facts in the modern spread of socialistic propaganda and in stating in definite terms the principles on which socialists are agreed and the immediate aims of their organizations. The world-sweep of the movement has never before been so clearly brought before the American reading public."—Review of Reviews.
