Esconde Mondude / Winchmore Hill Rd. No. 21" Forward by Henry R. Luce. "With this new spirit alive in England my story ends. England is now awake; it had taken a great shock to bring home a realization of the enormity of the task it was facing. All the latent energy stored up in England during the last seven years is being expended in vigorous drive for victory. Industry and labour, the rich and the poor, are contributing to England's fight for survival, with the knowledge that this is a supreme test of democracy's ability to survive in this changing world." (p 217).
