A personal story of Europe's people in the crucial years, 1946-47. The guns were silent but the peace had not yet begun. Edith Sulkin traveled as a 23-year-old reporter through England, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Holland, and Germany. This report is in terms of people rather than governments. Equipped with their language and the knowledge of how to approach them, she was able to assemble a remarkable picture of how the people of Europe came through the war. Sulkin found a continent suspended between the ideologies of the East and West, with many of its people desperately seeking the harbor of a middle way.
