The day after the bomb dropped, the thousands of years of "progress" that had covered the treacheries and lusts of ordinary man with a thiin veneer of civilization were dissolved and melted like snow on the desert's dusty face. Then the law of the jungle reigned.

But in the wreckage a few courageous survivors, men and women with the guts to have hope, were determined to build a new and better world on the ruins of the old. This is their story.
