The Swiss Without Halos is a non-fiction book written by J. Christopher Herold that explores the history, culture, and identity of Switzerland. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Swiss life, such as politics, economics, religion, and social customs. The author begins by providing an overview of Switzerland's geography and history, tracing its evolution from a loose confederation of cantons to a modern, democratic nation. He then delves into the unique features of Swiss society, including its multilingualism, federalism, and neutrality. Throughout the book, Herold examines the myths and stereotypes that have developed around Switzerland, such as the notion that it is a land of cuckoo clocks and chocolate. He also explores the darker aspects of Swiss history, such as its role in the slave trade and its treatment of Jews during World War II. Overall, The Swiss Without Halos is a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of a fascinating country. It is recommended for anyone with an interest in Swiss culture, history, or politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
