A nostalgic, first novel which opens on graduation night at Chicago's Lane Tech High School in June, 1952. It paints a retrospective picture of life, as it follows the youngest son of a close-knit, needy family on the North Side of Chicago, from 1937 until 1952. The story tells of Kathleen, the mother of three young sons, who is estranged from her drunken husband whom she left behind in east Texas. Within a year, Kathleen is forced to split her boys up into different homes. After six lonely years of keeping faith in God and each other, they are reunited in one home, on George Street. There, the boys encounter the dangers of boyhood curiosity, on their way to becoming young men, and learning that even poor people can possess pride and self-esteem. Near the end of the story, the specter of war looms again, this time in Korea, and Kathleen's two older sons enlist in answer to their nation's call. Once again their family's faith is to be tested by the trials of long separation. Hardcover, Edition: 1st, Label: Oakdale Press, Oakdale Press, Product group: Book, Published: 1997, Studio: Oakdale Press, Sales rank: 4572655.
