叠测听Terry Marshall (Jour鈥�64) and Ann Garretson Marshall (贰苍驳濒鈥�64)听
(Sandra Jonas Publishing House, 374 pages; 2021)
The true story of a soldier, a pacifist, and the woman who loved them both.
In June 1964, Ann Garretson skips her college commencement to tour Europe with Lieutenant Jack Sigg, a tank commander on the German-Czech border, with the hope of returning as his fianc茅e. A month into their rendezvous, her best friend, Terry, proposes marriage--by mail--throwing all their lives into turmoil.
Jack offers the military life Ann knows as an army brat. Terry, a conscientious objector, will leave for the Peace Corps at summer's end, unless the draft board intervenes and sends him to jail. Her dilemma: she loves them both.
Caught between the old mores and winds of change, Ann must make an agonizing choice.
In alternating voices,聽A Rendezvous to Remember聽presents firsthand accounts by the two who eventually married, enriched by letters from the rival, whose path led him elsewhere. Provocative and delightfully uncensored, this coming-of-age memoir is a tribute to the enduring power of love and family.
