Book excerpt: The author's relations with his father, a veteran of World War II, were terrible. The soldier came back from the war to a young son he'd barely met and proceeded to bully and browbeat him--for his own good. In the course of puzzling out almost fifty years of intermittent conflict, the author came to understand that their problems were not simply personal, they were generational--and widely shared. And so to write this book, which tells the secret history of World War II and its echoes down the generations, he has uncovered nine other dramatic and telling father-son tales.
