- Summary:
- "Jolted out of his innocent, isolated and comfortable world, the author confronted the cruel realities of geopolitical forces of war, exploitation and poverty when he went to Honduras as a 19-year-old Mennonite conscientious objector during the Vietnam War. Sometimes funny, sometimes shocking, but always engaging, the book is filled with personal stories of Clymer's encounters and interactions with the Honduran people, and the Spanish language and culture. Honduras left an indelible print on the author's life, his faith, and his vocation." -- Back cover.
