What Members Thought
This book is written as a series of diary entries made by Hugh, husband of Terry and a pacifist. The book written in 1936 but set in 1943 deals with the couple choosing to live in a cave after the outbreak of war. Considering it was written 3 years before the war, MacPherson was only 4 years late in predicting the war, the sense of fear the couple experiences increases as they lose touch with the world and the progression of the war.
