DescriptionThe innocence the 1950s and turbulence of the 1960s and 70s -- years when America reached out and touched the heavens, only to be torn apart by internal conflict and a war in Southeast Asia -- provide a dramatic setting for this unforgettable story of three men and the women they love carving a place for themselves in a society where the rules keep changing.

Written by bestselling novelist James Webb, it has been hailed as a major work of our time and a stunning commentary of political and social life in America over nearly three decades. From the wars in Korea and Vietnam to antiwar protests in Washington and POW camps in Hanoi, from young love and parenthood to divorce and reconciliation, Webb's eye for detail, provocative insights, and subtle revelations have earned him the highest literary accolades. His convincing characters and gripping scenes fully engage the reader as the three Naval Academy graduates reevaluate their lives, their country, and the cost of success.
