- catalog abstract ""A sensitive, idealistic Danish-American girl, just out of college [Antioch and Berkeley], marries an equally idealistic young Hungarian Unitarian minister and joins him in an impoverished village in his native Transylvania. Against great odds they make a heroic effort to lift the quality of life in that village. Christine's letters home, graphic and spontaneous, tell the story of how she and Balazs Feri (Francis Balazs) carried on that struggle.... Christine's letters carry three main themes. One deals with the social, political and cultural aspects of the oppresive Romanian occupation [of Transylvania after World War I]. Another is the poverty and hardship of peasant life in the village. Third and last is the long and losing battle with Feri's tuberculosis... Their situation was further complicated by the conservatism of the Unitarian leaders in Transylvania who regarded Feri as a radical young upstart"--Introd. Also includes letters written from Japan, China, Siberia, Russia, Poland, Denmark, and England.".
