Raised in the steamy bayous of New Orleans in the early 1900s, LeRoi "King" Tremain, caught up in his family's ongoing feud with the rival DuMont family, learns to fight. But when the teenage King mistakenly kills two white deputies during a botched raid on the DuMonts, the Tremains' fear of reprisal forces King to flee Louisiana. King thus embarks on an adventure that first takes him to France, where he fights in World War I as a member of the segregated 369th Battalion—in the bigoted army he finds himself locked in combat with American soldiers as well as with Germans. When he returns to America, he battles the Mob in Jazz Age Harlem, the KKK in Louisiana, and crooked politicians trying to destroy a black township in Oklahoma. King Tremain is driven by two principal forces: He wants to be treated with respect, and he wants to create a family dynasty much like the one he left behind in Louisiana. This is a stunning debut by novelist Guy Johnson that provides a true depiction of the lives of African-Americans in the early decades of the twentieth century.

I love you is often the first sentence we learn in the beginning, and then the last we hear at the end. It remains with us throughout our journey. Underway, love may bring out the best in us, but also the worst. Each of the twelve stories in this collection looks at love in a different way: love that is sweet or bitter, gained or denied, enduring or transient, encouraged or forbidden. The time span ranges from the here and now to the long long ago. We see how much in life is attempted and sometimes even achieved all for love.
