By James Webb

The 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.
