"A vivid and enlightening account of the Russian people in 1942 - the people who again and again have amazed the world by turning back the ruthless and powerful German Army. This book tells what those people are like and explains how and why they have been able to archive military miracles. It tells how they live in this war - how men, women, and children work and fight; how, whenever they can, they enjoy themselves; what they read and what they believe in; what they are fighting to preserve and to archive; what changes the war has brought about."

"After the death of Pericles, a new breed of politicians - men like Cleon, Cleophon, and Hyperbolus - came to power in Athens. Rejecting the traditional source of political support, the bonds of friendship, in favor of direct appeals to the people, they signaled the emergence of a new pattern of politics. The author traces the development of this new pattern-often misunderstood, often branded "demagogy" by both ancient and modern writers-by investigating the nature of political and social organization in Athens and the vocabulary of Greek politics." 218p.
