In 1998, Frank Schaeffer was a successful novelist living in “Volvo driving, higher-education worshiping” Massachusetts with a son graduated from Georgetown and a daughter from NYU. Then his youngest child- eighteen years old and straight out of high school- decided to join the U.S. Marines Corp. Written in alternating voices by eighteen-year-old John and his father, Keeping Faith takes us in riveting fashion through the experience of the U.S. Marine Corps: from being broken down and built back up on Parris Island (and being the parent of a child undergoing that experience), to the growth of both father and son, and their separate reevaluations of what it means to serve.
