The innocence of the 1950s and turbulence of the 1960s and 1970s - years when America reached out and touched the heavens only to be torn apart by internal conflict and a war in Southeast Asia - provide a dramatic setting for this unforgettable story of three men and the women they love, carving a place for themselves in a nation of change. We experience their passions, tragedies, and triumphs as they take stock of their lives, their country, and the cost of success.
