Shaara's beautifully sensitive novel delves deeply in the empathetic relm of psycho-history, where enemies do not exist-just mortal men forced to make crucial decisions and survive on the battlefield... He succeeds with his historical novel through fully realized characters who were forced to decided their loyalties amid the horrors of their dividing nation.
