    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on the book "Soviet Asia Mission," by Henry A. Wallace. Two topflight Americans, both with the blessing of F.D.R. roamed the wilds of Arctic Siberia. Henry Wallace's report, "Soviet Asia Mission," challenges comparison with Wendell Willkie's "One World." There is a thoroughly American tang in both men shrewd, kindly, energetic fighters for righteousness, not bothering over much about ideologies. His book is a synthetic product in which a dozen men had a share. They are a remarkable team, enough for a brain trust. But the writing of books is like the culinary art.
