Let Life be Like This

Dr. Bach has journeyed the globe "finding telltale sings that, at the heart of things, God is in his heaven and all is right with the world". He shares his insights as he recalls his experiences in America and fourteen other countries. Each nation provides the springboard for several heartening guides to the good life. Portugal gives rise to the injunction to "Pace yourself"; France, not to be afraid of your dreams. The lives of little people, the practice of other religions - in Africa, the Middle East, India, Southeast Asia - summon from the author small sermons on the possibilities of life and of brotherly acceptance. The threads of inspirations are a trifle fine for all but the uncritical reader. (Kirkus Reviews)
