Hill of Beans

Casablanca opens with the words, ""With the coming of the Second World War, many eyes in imprisoned Europe turned hopefully, or desperately, toward the freedom of the Americas."" Leslie Epstein's Hill of Beans is the story of how one nation, one industry, and, in particular, one man responded to that desperate hope.

Casablanca se deschide cu cuvintele: ,,,,Odata cu venirea celui de-al Doilea Razboi Mondial, multi ochi din Europa intemnitata s-au indreptat cu speranta, sau cu disperare, catre libertatea Americilor."" Dealul Fasolei al lui Leslie Epstein este povestea despre cum o singura natiune, o industrie si, in special, un om au raspuns acelei sperante disperate.
