　　From the author of the best-selling King Leopold's Ghost, this

haunting and deeply honest memoir tells of Adam Hochschild's

conflicted relationship with his father, the head of a

multinational mining corporation. The author lyrically evokes his

privileged childhood on an Adirondack estate, a colorful uncle who

was a pioneer aviator and fighter ace, and his first explorations

of the larger world he encountered as he came of age in the

tumultuous 1960s. But above all this is a story of a father and his

only son and of the unexpected peace finally made between them.
