A political saga spans two generations as it traces the lives of two hopeful U.S. senators and their battles against a New Right media genius who is determined to maintain the status quo.

Praise for Favorite Sons
"... a novel of ideas sweeping grandly through more than forty years of Southern history."
The New York Times Book Review

"This novel's finest accomplishment...appears in the stranglehold that the past exerts upon the present."
Los Angeles Times

"Favorite Sons...is that rare breed—political novel, family saga and first-rate literary fiction."
Newsday

"Like all good fiction, Favorite Sons illuminates the human condition...it also illuminates our time and place, and tells us something about who we are, and why."
Charlotte Observer
