A classic Heinlein, take one 1950's leave it to beaver family of four, a dinner guest and the kitchen help, add an atomic war and a well stocked bomb shelter. Shake well and displace a thousand years into the future. Good stuff. A bit odd at times but thats what you get when you stir in social commentary with a good survival/adventure/apocalypse theme.
