Politico-military realities explained through a tale of man versus nature... A resident of the bustling suburbs of Washington, D.C., relocates to the virgin woods of beautiful Northern Virginia to escape traffic, urban sprawl and the bombardment of national news in order to seek his peace. He finds and develops a rural property, then builds his dream house, unaware that he is, in effect, making war on another way of life - nature. From the outset it becomes clear The Assembly and its unlikely hero, Grundy, a groundhog, doesn't want him there. It covets the same hill. But his daughter loves the wildlife and will not permit it to be harmed. As he attempts to settle in, the owner finds himself constrained in a war of his own. The owner's plot presents in microcosm all the drama and intrigue of international political engagement and strife. The outcome is uncertain. Politics introduces aspects of international dealings not usually touched upon, but of interest to any reader who follows policy development, statecraft or arms control, including students of history or social studies.
