Description for A DISTANT DRUM by Charles Bracelen Flood:

The characters in LOVE IS A BRIDGE grew up in the twenties and thirties. This is the story of the generation who followed them, a generation who found the Korean War their responsibility, a generation of young men and women who loved beauty and excitement and each other. It in particular the story of Patrick Kingsgrant, and the forces that brought him to maturity; his father, a feudal lord from Maine who believed that life was work; Allston Hunt, a Harvard professor who taught with his heart as well as his mind; Anna van Neerdaam, the blonde from New York whose only sin was confusion; and the Untied States Army, which taught the final lessons.
