MACKINLAY KANTOR

Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Andersonville

THIS NOVEL WAS THE BASIS FOR THE 1943 FILM

HAPPY LAND

"Hail, Columbia, happy land!

Hail, ye heroes, heav'n-born band—"

Happy Land is about Rusty Marsh, and the life he lived. It is about ordinary folks, and how they came to be brave. It is the record of a civilization which strengthens itself with Boy Scouts and bob-rides, with public high schools and neighborly kindnesses, with churches and drug stores and cornfields and Indian stories—with the simple fare of Ameri­can life which once seemed dull and now holds bewitching beauty. This civiliza­tion must not perish from our land or from this earth. It will not perish while one Rusty Marsh is alive to fight for it.
