He paused for a minute, and a lovely green mountain floated into the boy's mind and settled in place. "If you look carefully, you can see a cave halfway up the mountain," Steve went on. "But there is a door on the cave. As I count from one to ten, I want you to climb up the mountain to that door. One . . ." In a flash the boy stood in front of the door. No, that was too fast...

As for that cave, which once served as an Underground Railroad stop, it suits Pearl just fine. "That," she pronounced, "is something solid...
...thought that if the strongest country, militarily and industrially, decided that something was right for Vietnam, then the other side would capitulate. Johnson is a man of action and feels that if you know that you have the strength, show your strength resolutely, and the other side will cave in. The other side hasn't caved in. To Johnson I am sure that it is inconceivable that this tiny country is beating...
