Summary
"The Lears are military men, gentlemen by nature, Texans in spirit. Joined by the fierce and tender bonds of blood and by a common allegiance to the same ideal, they are, nontheless, mysteries to themselves and to each other. Father, son, and grandson look upon the service almost as a lover who demands perfect fidelity and is capable of complete betrayal. Their tradition is the conflict between love and duty, a yearning for a bond to something larger than themselves."--Jacket
