Synopsis
"Prelude to a declaration of duties toward mankind." "This is an original, a profound and in some ways even a great book." - Dwight Mac Donald, New York Times "It was a particular job which she set out to do; it was a universal task which she accomplished. Under the guise of examining France, she examined man; by way of advising for man's future on earth she laid out a scheme for his conquest of heaven; in reading it, as Mr. Eliot says, 'We simply must expose ourselves to the personality of a woman of genius, of a kind of genius akin to that of the saints.' It is an experience of the soul to do so." - Thomas Sugrue, Saturday Review
