This is one of Armstrong’s later cover designs—a postwar conceptualization of Van Dyke’s essays about visions that come to us imparting the meaning of life while in the throes of extremely difficult times. This vibrant design features the poppies mentioned in the stories and the Madonna lily, representing the purity of the soul.
