Abstract

Small stories of decency are often overlooked in the wake of a larger historic narrative. Yet we need these stories to provide a moral compass, especially in times of political extremism, when fear and hatred strain the bonds of loyalty and neighborly compassion. How, this book asks, do neighbors maintain a modicum of decency in such times? How do we negotiate evil and remain humane when, as in the Nazi years, hate rules?

Abstract

'Three Men in a Boat' describes a comic expedition by middle-class Victorians up the Thames to Oxford, and provides snap-shots of London's playground in the late 1880s. 'Three Men on the Bummel' records a similar escapade some ten years later, when the trio cycle through the Black Forest, at the height of the new bicycling craze.
