It is the story of the Trojans, a family which believed that they were the people for whom the world was created. But when Harry Trojan came home after twenty years in New Zealand, with the democracy learned by working his hands, he was the 'wooden horse' who boldly carried into the 'Trojan' walls a lot of ideas that were completely alien to the family. 155.
