Description: TIME OF PEACE (September 26, 1930 - December 7, 1941) by Ben Ames Williams A STORY OF THE DECADE THAT ENDED WITH PEARL HARBOR Copyright 1942 Houghton Mifflin Company (Most likely First Edition was copyright date matches front and back of title page and there is not multiple printing dates listed on back of title page) Summary: "War took along time coming to the United States. Over a period of at least a decade a few far-sighted people saw it coming, read between the lines of back-page news items which inevitably advanced to front-page headlines as Hitler's threatening career progressed, and watched the swing in this country from isolationism to war-psychology and support of the Administration. Mark Worth was one of those people, and his interest in world events was pointed up by the effect he knew they would have on his son, Tony. The book is essentially the story of the relationship between a father and his adolescent son during this period of mounting tension. It is told with a wealth of warm, small incidents - deaths and births and marriages, schools and dinner parties and trips, and is broadened and deepened by the impact of national and world events." 600 pages Book itself in great condition.
