Corwin's "first experiment with the translation of a radio work into a form expressly intended for the eye. As an innovation in book-making, it is much easier to describe by telling what it isn't that what it is. It isn't an essay, an epic poem, a photo drama, a play, a novel, a short story, or a series of vignettes; yet it has some of the elements of each. In one sense it is a celebrational piece, the 'Triumph' of the title referring to our victory over the Germans, yet it is also a kind of superquestionnaire asking the sharpest questions of the day and answering them."
