Mowry Beach 3rd edition

Before the sex, drugs, and music of the freewheeling sixties, the fifties brought the numbing fear of nuclear Armageddon. Mowry Beach follows the struggles of the child of a Cold War military officer who yearns to find his own identity in a world where force majeure is king and instant annihilation lurks behind every bit of breaking news. Coming to terms with the opposite sex while learning to get along in a conflicted society where no one escapes the harsh facts of life, he faces challenges that find parallels in every era.
