The View From The Ground

Martha Gellhorn's peacetime dispatches bear witness to six decades of change: America in the Great Depression, the betrayal of Czechoslovakia, young Poles undaunted by their Communist government, the trial of Adolf Eichmann, Spain in the days after Franco's death, Cuba revisited after forty-one years. Here is history as it looked and felt to the people who lived through it. Intense, courageous and vividly readable, The View from the Ground is a remarkable act of testimony. Condition: the book is in quite good condition. The covers are slightly worn and the front cover is partially peeling away at the bottom. The spine is creased and there are some patches of discolouration to the pages.
