Sam Kopco returned from Viet Nam physically and emotionally wounded, expecting to be restored in the peaceful Minisink Valley. But the Minisink was in the throes of controversy about a dam planned for the Delaware River there. Thousands of long-time residents had been forced to sell their land--land many had lived on for generations. Homes and churches were bulldozed. The country Sam returned to was a different place too. Turmoil caused by Viet Nam War protests, disorder on college campuses, political assassinations and riots in the big cities made it seem the entire country had lost its way. The novel tells Sam's story, that of Holly, his lover, and several others: a housewife who is an environmental advocate opposed to dam construction, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers manager charged with building the dam, and the leader of a group attempting to establish a utopian community on land taken from local people who had lived on it for generations.
