Peter Benton, the young journalist to whom Shepherd tells his story, is dramatically snapped out of his cosy cynicism and indolent denial of responsibility, to face a dreadful reality. He discovers that he can no longer take a back-seat in the rapid self-destruction of the world, and is forced to make a momentous decision. *** Quantity Available: 1.
