A global war breaks out in 1940 and lasts for many decades, until no one remembers who started it or why. In 1966, a great plague kills much of the population. One day, a strange aircraft lands and its pilot tells of an organization dedicated to rebuilding civilization. The world is gradually reestablished over the next few decades until, in 2035, on the eve of man’s first flight to the moon, violent protest erupts against progress.
