Book Details

First Sentence

"This book is a study of a phenomenon which is becoming all too frequent in the present day - a dying village community. However, since it is concerned mainly with the values and attitudes which are derived from a long tradition and which even in the present times sustain the villagers in a sense of purpose and destiny, it is concerned more with life than with death."
