Well, this wasn't exactly sweetness and light, this was after all a book about war, but finely and sympathetically drawn for all that. I think Buck's touch with characters was better in this book than in The Good Earth, and while the book deals with pain, war, and death, yet there is a little element of the power of will and hope nonetheless. Loved the family and how family-centered the book was.
