I found this a very touching story of the complex dynamics and individual personalities of a loving Texas family in the military. When a man makes a decision to become a top officer in the military his whole family is also in the military and must behave admirably at all times. When you read this novel you come to understand that military life is difficult and also quite rewarding. This author has a gift for bringing her characters to life. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys feeling as if they are part of the story.
