Half-Right

If the good news of the analysis
proves unfounded, if the war makers
succeed in fathering enough mad
bombers and murderers among us
and if the best intentions are turned
into the worst impulses, then the
greening will be the groaning of
America, and most of what we will
have lost will be excellently described
by this book. If so, it comprises
a valuable record of a genesis
and its interim effects, while failing
to grasp the ultimate reality.

On the other hand, the Reich
book could turn up as an early
chapter in a new bible of a new
generation, depicting a struggle for
survival which was not for nothing.
