Aachen, Maastricht and Liege are practically neighbours -only about twenty miles separate them but they are in three countries speaking three distinct languages namely Dutch, French and German. Aachen was the first German city to Fall to the Allies, after a seven day street battle in that left almost the whole of it in ruins.
You would never guess it now. The cathedral was small and dark but exquisite with its doomed roof, its striped bands of contrasting marble and its stained glass, so rich that it seemed almost liquid. I would go to Aachen tomorrow to see it again.

Everyone else in the class was building things like cedar chests and oceangoing boats and getting to play with dangerous and noisy power tools, but I had to sit at the Basics Table with Tubby Tucker and a kid who was so stupid that I don't think we ever learned his name. I haven't found this in his later books, but earlier on his writing seems to show a distracting obsession with sex. If I was actually from any of the countries he traveled to I think I would have dropped his book in the nearest garbage can as soon as I read the first paragraph of his visit to my country.
