...Harvard's controversial "Deep Throat" screening to the imprisonment of Soviet dissidents, he has loudly denounced violations of civil liberties, as if to re-assert personally the free expression denied his clients.

Lest credulity be overstrained, a dust-jacket photograph shows Author Benchley riding on the back of a manta ray. If he can do it, so, presumably, can Paloma. Such authentication is really unnecessary. The Girl of the Sea of Cortez is an underwater morality play with a happy ending. Fabulous events do not seem unbelievable when they...
