Written to mark the eightieth birthday of the world's great men the primary intention of this lucid and dignified biography has been to explain the scientist, musician and humanitarian to young people, but I think it should seriously be recommended to all those who know no more of Dr Albert Schweitzer than that he has a hospital in Equatorial Africa for lepers, a home visited occasionally in Alsace, and that he is one of the world's greatest interpreters of the music of Bach. Its deliberate simplicity of phrasing is extraordinarily appropriate when one reflects on the great simplicity of the man himself.' -The Sphere Miss Manton has performed a magnificent service both for children and for their parents. The importance of her book is that she has approached it with love, and therefore she has told it in such a way that its infection must be caught at once, even by the least academic child. We cannot be too grateful to the author for having told it so that it may capture the imaginative age of all." -Catherine King, broadcasting from Perth, Australia
