  2. Sinclair Lewis _ It Can't Happen Here

    There were two things, they told Doremus, that distinguished this prairie Demosthenes. He was an actor of genius. There was no more overwhelming actor on the stage, in the motion pictures, nor even in the pulpit.

  3. Sinclair Lewis _ It Can't Happen Here

His political platforms were only wings of a windmill.
