The harsh life of young eleven-year-old Andrew Boyd is forever
altered in the summer of 1910, along with everyone he would meet
from that day forth. In the lull between two wars, America wades
within the shallows of prejudice and self-worth. Yet Andy serves as
a mirror that unconsciously reflected people for what they truly
are. Poor and hardworking, he and his mother obtain work in the
industrial thriving city of Richmond, by means of the prosperously
influential Stone family. Among the many that he influences, the
Stone children have the greatest impact upon him. A headstrong and
tempered William becomes his best friend, while ambiguous and
starry-eyed Cherish forever torments his emotions. With their
ever-changing world, they share many discerning firsts. As they
pass through their teenage years, their conflicts amplify until
eventually boiling over into the war. The story unfolds as Andy
looks back upon the course of life even as he nears the end of his.
