[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 614369, member: 1967"] The original book, The Great Santini, was a fictional story loosely based on his own family. His editor at the time told him he had to humanize the father character or no one would see any redeeming value in him. The new book, The Death of Santini: The Story of a Father and his Son, is the true story of his dysfunctional family. In the end, Pat forgives his father for the abusive childhood and they develop a deep love for each other over time. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
