A Breach of Faith

Michael K. McMahan

4.9/5 (20636 ratings)

Description:This largely autobiographical novel is about two young boys growing up in a small southern town, one the son of a white Southern Baptist minister and the other the oldest child of a black textile worker.The story examines relationships between whites and blacks prior to the southern school desegregation, which began in the 1970s, by presenting lower-middle income southern families, both black and white, as they were: highly functional, extended, and usually happy.It also addresses the realities of the late 1960s when their sons were called upon to fight an unpopular foreign war which, although unnecessary and not of clear vital national interest, was nonetheless winnable. Too many young men, not allowed to win their battles, betrayed by politicians, bureaucrats, and protesters, came home in silver caskets, their names permanently engraved on black granite walls and their souls crying out for eternity in silent anguish.
