Publisher's Synopsis
In this classic American coming-of-age tale, Ramsey Milholland's journey from boyhood to manhood unfolds against the backdrop of a rapidly changing early twentieth-century America. As he navigates the challenges of college life-including his complex feelings for a passionate young pacifist-the drums of World War I grow ever louder. When global conflict forces him to confront his beliefs about duty, courage, and patriotism, Ramsey must finally decide what kind of man he wants to become.
