Cal, Harlan, and Buddy grow up together in a small Virginia town in the years before the second World War. United by age, proximity, and temperament, they get into--and out of--all the trouble that boys manage to find.

"Uncle" Vic calls them the Mulligans, because they always seem to find a way through a thicket of trouble--family problems, girls, college, war--to success.
