Review:
"ADMIRABLY TOUGH-MINDED... eloquently expressed.... [Boland] is against thoughtless submission but very much for sacrifices in partnership that result in greater mutual understanding."
"Boland's loyalty to the plain words that call forth a whole past keeps the pear fires burning decades after they were lit."
