The Great Santini Summary:

Fierce and fearsome, Col. Bull Meecham is an ace Marine fighter pilot, a legend to his men and known to one and all as "The Great Santini." For Meecham's family-especially his sensitive older son Ben, who is on the verge of manhood-the dark side of the legend is all too real. Pat Conroy's 1976 novel The Great Santini tells their story, an unforgettable portrait of a family that endures in the shadow of a well-intentioned but cruelly demanding and abusive father. The great surprise here is the character of Bull Meecham himself, a harsh and impossible figure the reader comes to know from Ben's perspective, with hard-won love and understanding.
