Father is a special man, he is a wonderful husband and father. He's a family man, who spends every available moment with his children. Thus, it is all the sadder when he is taken away from his family and incarcerated, after being falsely accused during the internment of the Japanese after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
When he finally returns to his family, father is a broken, sickly man.... a shell of the man he once was. Father tells his story in the novel's final chapter.
