Farnhams Freehold

From the Jacket Flap: "In 'Farnham's Freehold', his thirtieth novel, Robert A Heinlein, the acknowledged dean of American science fiction, has written a fascinating novel on the themes of individualism and self-responsibility. With all the excitement and surprises readers have learned to expect from his fiction, Mr. Heinlein provides dazzling suspense as an American family is hurtled into the future and finds itself faced with the distorted values of a new society. This dramatic account of life in the world of tomorrow - how Hugh Farman, his family, a friend and servant cope with the problems of survival in an adverse and alien culture - is told with humor, drama, and biting satire."
