Book Description:
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 fiancée. 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 grew up with. Terry, a conscientious
objector, will leave for the Peace Corps at the end of the summer—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, A Rendezvous to Remember 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, anchored in the tumult of the sixties,
is a tribute to the enduring power of love and family.
