Valley Of Vision

Valley of Vision

by Henry Van Dyke

In "Valley of Vision," Henry Van Dyke explores the idea that true understanding and insight come not from lofty heights but from the depths of human experience, particularly through suffering, endurance, and self-sacrifice. Drawing inspiration from the events of World War I, Van Dyke argues that the Allied victory was a testament to the power of right, justice, and human kindness, which emerged from the depths of the valley rather than the heights of power.
