| Description: | Earth Could Be Fair is, as its author says, “A Chronicle.” In fact, it is the story of Pierre van Paassen’s boyhood and youth in Holland; but, though written in the first person, the narrative is concerned more with the little Dutch town of Gorcum, its picturesque character, and the rich variety of its people, than with the author himself. In a very real sense, also, this volume is a contribution to history—the history of the terrible first four decades of the present century, which began for Pierre and his schoolmates with idyllic days and fantastic adventures, and ended in the terror of the Warsaw Ghetto, in the barbaric isles of the Pacific, in a Europe reduced to shambles.—Excerpt from “The Atlantic” [Suggest a different description.] |
