What happens when a warship from Earth arrives to reclaim a lost human colony named Beasphor?  The Earth Ship is an extrapolation of Earth's warlike tendencies into a spacefaring future.  The author offers a glimpse of the brutality of Earthians and what military officers would do to accomplish their mission.On the flip side, Graham Storrs offer a ray of hope in the form of a planet inhabited by colonists from Earth that adapted the ideals of Gandhism, the use of passive nonviolence to resist.  The author strives to show the possibilities of this utopia, where no man is greater than the other, and each works towards the common good.The Earth Ship is a short, but thought provoking story with an original premise.
