Fifty years after his first novel took the world by storm, Leon Uris returns to the subject that first inspired him: the United States Marine Corps.
In the years following the Civil War, first-generation Irish-American Zachary O'Hara finds himself playing a critical role in the future of the Marines. But he hadn't counted on Amanda Blanton Kerr - the passionate, obstinate daughter of a wealthy and ruthless industrialist, on a mission of her own, and poised to blaze a trail for her sex.
'O'Hara's Choice' is the story of the inevitable collision of these two fighting spirits. Achieving their souls' desire could jeopardise everything they - and their parents - have struggled to achieve.
A riveting, sweeping tale, 'O'Hara's Choice' shows the master of the historical novel at his most brilliant.
