Sheean is a profoundly thoughtful and open-minded person, and it was a delight to encounter all of these different cultures from his perspective. He explores early communism from the Chinese, and then the Soviet perspective. Enters Palestine as a Zionist, and leaves not as one, for reasons he lays out clearly and after much consideration. He has a kind and open-hearted soul, and looking at the world through his eyes makes it fresh for his reader as well.
There are so many topics that have been declared utterly off-limits for modern debate - communism, socialism, capitalism, Zionism/the existence of Israel, antisemitism, foreign wars for capital gain, colonialism and the destruction of cultures inherent in that endeavor. He shines a light on all of these topics with a gentle, well-considered judgment, which leaves the reader in no doubt about his opinions, without making any claims to a final truth.
