A look Cleopatra, Her Infinite Variety THE GOLDEN AGE By Clifford Dowdey The Macmillan Company Queen QUEEN ANNE By David Green Charles Scribner's Sons $8.95. Queen Anne has been titled England's "most neglected queen," and yet her reign witnessed some of England's greatest triumphs.

QUEEN ANNE, published on March 5, is the latest work of the superb biographer, David Green, whose last book SARAH DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH was hailed as Mr. Fast Recalls Crossing THE CROSSING By Howard Fast William Morrow Co. $5.95 If you have look on that famous painting by Emanuel Leutze which insists that this was how Washington crossed the Delaware back in those cold days of the Revolutionary War you need to read this new book by Mr. Fast. It has been bruited about here and there that the story written into most schoolbooks and painted on Leutze's canvas was not too accurate and Mr.

Fast makes it sure. He has gone back to the sources and came up with what really did happen that night that Washington decided to re-cross the ice-filled Delaware river and attack the Hessians, For one thing, and one of, the most Important, the Hessians were not drunk. For another the colonials were in summer uniforms and most of them were due to go home in about one month. It was while pondering the problems and labeling the reasons why he shouldn't make the effort that Washington decided to load his men in boats and give it a try. A month from now there wouldn't be enough of the 20,000 soldiers left to do much more than hope for spring.

Here it is as it was. The story of how Washington crossed the Delaware. It is certainly about time the truth was told. Miss Spark's Has Unusual THE DRIVER'S SEAT By Muriel Spark Alfred A. Knopf There is one simple rule for reading.

It is about Emma- Challis and Gerlad Delmont.

In this volume, a continuation of his projection of Virginia and its great men who played an Important role In the making of the colonies, the founding of the nation and the continuation of its future In a' changing world. It is almost Impossible for the mind to accept what they accomplished in a wilderness. They -brought luxury and style and living to its fullest in an area where there wasn't one shopping center, not one country club, not one luncheon club and surely no cars, radios, television and an overabundance of tarts. As Mr.

Dowdey points out, they brought to the fullest meaning, the words Life in thrall, for In those golden days of the early 1700s, the accumulators of Virginia made it a business to make money to add to their baronial style living. In those halcyon days they found something lovely and tranquil along the James, the Potomac and the Rappahannock and other Virginia streams and their monuments many of them still, stand along the James and other streams of history in the Dominion State. In those days there was no such thing as politics for the top posts in government were ap- pointire and those with the right t0 rule or govern followed other members of their family in the pursuit of certain posts. It is odd to note that these men, who came to Virginia from all manner of beginnings, managed to make something unusual, yet in building they also planted, a bed of liberalism. This bed grew in latter years to unseat the king's man in this part of the world.

They learned to govern in the House of Burgesses in Williamsburg and then took their expertise to Philadelphia and later to Washington for these were the men who led this country from colonialism to capitalism. This is a book with full sweep and polish of the first book on the subject by Mr. Dowdey. It is assumed that there is enough at hand to keep Mr. Dowdey busy with the continuing story of the men who made the nation in their likeness at Williamsburg.

It is one of the best Dowdey at his usual excellence. D.S. -i- folflTlifll "-JlVHldi Furniture Beautiful HOW TO MAKE COLONIAL FURNITURE By F.H. Goftshali The Bruce Publishing Co. $9.95 The author makes this point.

Colonial is a much abused word, and he is right. He points out that colonial furniture was made In America before the. Revolution. He further notes that the furniture made, mostly in home shops, by carpenters and by home- joining was rugged. That it was.

It was also practical but today, 300 years after It came into being in America and more accurately the 13 colonies, it is beautiful furniture and Mr. Qpttshall has included in this very helpful book many pieces of colonial furniture. It should be remembered that colonial furniture came into being in this country shortly, after the Jacobean era, one of the more ugly furniture eras anywhere. Mr. Gottshall makes clear the importance of the wood and in many cases he calls for yellow poplar.

If you can find this wood for- furniture-making you will have some of the most beautiful wood available for certain pieces. It is not a rugged wood but it has a soft golden natural color that shellac provides only a protective patina. Anyway, in this book are some pieces that any man with pa tience can make and he should. is a book with photos and bills 0f materials and drawings that will take you by the hand. Try u.

Surrounded by others more brilliant than she, Anne chose as her closest confidantes the most brilliant of all: Sidney Godolphin; John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough and the indomitable Sarah Churchill, Duchess of Marlborough. With them she presided over the great 'events of the day: the union of England and Scotland; the glorious military victories of Marlborough; and the war which secured Europe against the domination of Louis XVI. Realizing her dependence upon them, she once remarked prophetically, "we four must never part." QUEEN ANNE is more than political history.

It is also a moving portrait of a women who desired only genuine friendship, a family and peace, but who attained none of these in her life. Harassed for favor by her friends, unable to have children, and plauged by illness, Anne became increasingly solitary and her last years were spent in great loneliness. David Green has brilliantly recreated the glamorous world of the late 17th and early 18th century England, which is now being seen by so many on the widley acclaimed Public Broadcasting Service dramazation, "The First Churchills." His scholarlv in- siohta flnH nmnnthv with tho period make QUEEN ANNE an indispensable companion to SARAH: DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH and to all the fans of this television series. Long Look Backward THE VIRGINIA CONSERVATIVES By Jack P. Maddex, U.

of North Carolina Press $8.50 This is almost unusual book dealing with the post-Civil War era and the author has reached into some significant nooks to bring to light many facts of present interest, as they affected the national after the Civil War. Not only has the author touched on many facets of the post war era, but he has gone into names and philosophies and followed them from their humble beginnings to their ultimate end. He outlines the work of the Committee of Nine, the Walker ticket and administration, the Virginia conservatives and the new America, the politics of transportation, the Commonwealth of the Countryside to the finale the disintegration of the Conservative party. This not only a most interesting book, well written and bountifully noted, but like most UNC books it is beautiful. Lovely Orchids AUMKALiANNAiivt UKUUUb ByLeoCady andE.B.Rotherham VUdrie! uuie wi.

d.s. THE COUPLE By Mr. and Mrs. $5.95 oward-McCann Joan and Harold K. are the couple.

After ten years of marriage they were still in love dui nad never made love sue- cessfully. They had resigned. themselves to a divorce or to a life of unsatisfactory sex or to no sex at all. Repeated visits to doctors, psychiatrists and marriage -counselors had only made their problem worse. In desperation, Joan and Harold went to the most revolutionary sex therapists of our day Dr.

William Masters and Mrs. Virginia Johnson, founders of the Reproductive Biology Research Foundation in St. Louis. THE COUPLE is Joan and Harold's Intensely personal story and a thoroughly candid account of their 14 dayi at the Masters and Johnson clinic In the early part of 1970. It is as Here at Cleopatra from the book is now recreated in CLEOPATRA by Jack Lindsay, the first full-scale biography since Arthur Weigall's standard biography first published in 1914.

Although physically less than perfect (with an overly generous mouth and a hooked nose), Cleopatra possessed a spellbinding sensuality, a charismatic charm, and an obsessive drive for power. It was this extraordinary combination of passion and drive that "a 1,1 Rcy ruie at onueqofKthe greatest moments nlnflnil 1 I 1. in history the formation of the Roman Empire. While her strength enabled her to rule Egypt as the last stronghold of the ancient Eastern empire, her weakness in love ultimately destroyed her powerful reign" through her doomed alliance and love affair with Marc Antony. By studying the poets and historians who were Cleopatra's contemporaries, friends, and enemies, Jack Lindsay provides a unique insight into the thoughts and aspirations of this mysterious woman, a shrewd politician who employed the very modern concept of image making to bring the masses under her control at a very crucial point in the history of the world.

including Meetings with Poets, an account of his acquaintance with the leading poets of our day Mr. Lindsay's passion for Graeco-Roman culture began with translations of ancient Greek and Roman poets, followed by several books on the world of Julius Caesar. His works on Roman Egypt include Dally Life in Roman Egypt, Men nd Gods on the Roman Nile, and Leisure and Pleasure In Roman Egypt. A man of fantastically diverse interests, Mr. Lindsay's work has spanned the fields of history, poetry, biography, criticism, art, archaeology, and anthropology.

Although Joan and Harold assumed they were going to St. Louis to cure Harold's problem which was secondary impotence and Johnson told them at the outset that what makes their treatment unique is that they don't treat lationship is the patient. After two weeks at the clinic, Joan and Harold returned home. The treatment worked. In Harold's case, "It was like a miracle." Within the first few weeks after their return, "The were exceptions.

Putnam's Sons $5.95. This is a tale of the sea and an old ship, the HMS Terrapin. It is also the tale of Rex Standish and Commander Hector Dalzeil, the former a victim of a tragedy aboard another ship and the latter a man with an inner drive that would not let down in the face of laughter and ridicule. It is in part the story of the HMS Terrapin, a ship that did its part in the Second World War and now, more than 25 years later is still patroling the heaving seas. Because of her age, most of those who served aboard her had very little pride in the old frigate and little compassion for her aches and pains.

"First, he refused criptions about sexual things. No generalities.

And second, as I watched his face, I realized nothing I'd ever done would shock him." Therapy with Mrs. Johnson was also a revelation: "She's very sexy," says Harold. "It's not so much what she looks like, it's what she's seen." Then there is their personal experience with the phenomenal Masters and Johnson techniques: "Maybe it's part of the treatment," Harold comments, "but from the moment you arrive in St. Louis, Masters and Johnson keep you In a state of suspense.
