This
Way To Christmas
-------------------
by Ruth Sawyer
(1880-1970) |
This
is a collection of Christmas stories from various
cultures. Stories about loneliness, isolation, and
the overcoming of prejudice. It is no accident that
each of the story-tellers represents a group which
was viewed with suspicion or dislike in 1916 America.
Feeling against Germans was strong because of the
war; Eastern Europeans were viewed with suspicion
and South Americans and Blacks were often treated
as inferior races. In the end, they are all seated
at one table, eating together as one human family.
