Summary
  • "Against the electrifying backdrop of the 1960s, Danielle Steel unveils the gripping chronicle of a young woman discovering a passion for justice and of the unsung heroes she encounters on her quest to fight the good fight. Encompassing the remarkable people the protagonist, Meredith, meets, the historic events she witnesses, and the sacrifices she must make, this is the story of a woman changing her world as she herself is changed by it. Beautifully told, brimming with unforgettable moments and characters, THE GOOD FIGHT is an inspiring, uplifting novel with resonance for our own times"--
  • Spending her childhood in Germany as her father prosecutes Nazi war criminals at the Nuremberg trials, Meredith McKenzie soaks up the conflict between good and evil as it plays out in real time. Returning to the United States, determined to become a lawyer despite her father's objections, she forges a lifelong friendship with a young German Jewish woman whose family died in the concentration camps. While her grandfather rises to the Supreme Court, Meredith fights for civil rights and an end to the Vietnam War. When the violence of the era strikes too close to home, her family must survive a devastating loss and rethink their own values and traditions in light of the times. -- adapted from jacket
