#1 New York Times bestselling author Pat Conroy's classic
semi-autographical novel of a harsh Marine father and his son's
struggle to come into his own. "Robust and vivid...full of
feeling." --Newsday This is the story of Bull Meecham, the epitome
of the Marine officer. Demanding, authoritarian, as tough a
disciplinarian at home as at the base, Bull is a difficult man to
please, and even harder to love. This is also the story of Ben
Meecham, Bull's oldest son. A gifted athlete whose best never
satisfies his father, Ben must balance his own ambition with his
father's expectations--and decide what course he will chart for
himself and what kind of man he will become. Piercing, bittersweet,
and unforgettable, The Great Santini is Pat Conroy's
semi-autobiographical lens into fathers and sons, and the powerful
legacy one man can leave behind.
