Unto All Men

Unto All Men

This novella recently came to light as a bequest to her grandchildren by Taylor Caldwell. It has as background the impending invasion by the German Army into Czechoslovakia, and as foreground the thoughts of 8 men who decide to make a defense against the Germans, knowing that it would be a futile military effort but a self redeeming symbolic one. Taylor Caldwell tells the story of each, the twists and turns of their thoughts, as they each decide to stay and fight. Itâ€™s quite a call to the futility of war, and yet the necessity of not accepting tyranny.
