A classic book, a rousing tale. Loved it.
More Libertarian commentary on race and gender in the 1960s US, but a fun read, nonetheless.
This was a great book. Full of surprises. If you liked Stranger is a Strange Land, you will like this book.
Wow. So many controversial topics touched on, it's hard to remember them all. This book reminded me of how much of a free-reign Sci Fi authors (and other authors) have. And the implications for 'thought' are huge. Thanks Robert Heinlein!
From back cover: Only Robert Heinlein could have created this powerful, all-too-prophetic novel of what happens after a massive nuclear attack on America. It is the story of the one family whose members survive to facr a strange and harrowing future.
There's a sign at Farnham's Freehold which says, among other notices:
