From Cubby's perspective, "1968 pretty much sucked..." And with two years left before graduation from high school, Cubby James and the group of close friends in the East Tennessee town of Lincoln, are just trying to get through it all. Along the way, they have to work through the problems and make decisions that will affect the rest of their lives.

Struggling with the uncertainty of their teen years, AFTER ALL tells the story of growing up in a small mountain town, dealing with the uncertainty and heartbreak of young love, the emerging drug culture, deciding who they can trust, and the moral choices that must be made between right and wrong. Set against the backdrop of national chaos in the late 1960's, AFTER ALL takes the reader back to a time when hard truths were realized, and innocence was lost. The questions they face appear unique to them and their time, but in reality are the same questions faced by all generations.

AFTER ALL is a tour of the memories we have tucked back in our minds, and revisits the wins and losses each of us encounter in our lives.
