THE OYSTERS OF LOCMARIAQUER, by Eleanor Clark. The history of oyster culture from Roman times to the present day is told with accuracy and dedication by Miss Clark. But her word portraits of Bretons who do this arduous work practically steal the show from the mollusk.
CORNELIUS SHIELDS ON SAILING. With the 1964 America's Cup races under way, the armchair skipper as well as the sailor can bone up on the intricacies of the sport. Shields, a great yachtsman, writes plainly but never writes "down."
