"One Whirl" is the hilarious story of a great tragedy. It is a comedy which deals with one of the greatest dangers confronting the democratic peoples today... appeasement.
Sydney Baron tries to tell the world's leaders that they are falling down on on the job of winning the peace, and that they will have the people to answer to. He tells it in a truly delightful manner. The book is piercing, witty and highly entertaining. It is indeed a brilliant satire. Grosz's illustrations, powerful and dramatic, complement a message which, too, is powerful and dramatic. "One Whirl" will make the world sit up and take notice ... and do things.
said Drew Pearson in his Washington-Merry-Go-Round, "... the State Department is in for a delightful satire in Sydney Baron's 'One Whirl'. The appeasement boys won't like it!"
- All above, verbatim from the original 1944 paperback

Book Details
First Sentence
""Everyone was as excited as hell. And even more confused. Now that Hitler had blown his brains out and hostilities in Europe had ended, a new working world order had to be established. Also, Japan had to be licked. But everyone was far too excited to worry about that for the time being.""
