Description

In the early years after the Vietnam War, a budding friendship between a bullied farm boy from Vermont's rural Northeast Kingdom and a wounded Navy pilot from the streets of New York City blooms into a transformation of triumph and resilience.16-year-old Skeets Stearns finds refuge in the rugged mountain behind his familyfarm, where he knows every nook and cranny. Roaming the mountain has made his body strong, like the legendary catamount that once roamed Vermont's forests; but his physical strength has yet to give him the courage to date pretty, popular Becky Winslow, star of the high school girls' track team. Before enlisting in the Navy, Bill MacColl had been a contender to make the US Olympic Team as a decathlete. That dream ended when he was shot down during a combat mission in the Vietnam jungle. Trying to put his life back together, MacColl moves in with the Stearns family-counting on the fresh air of the farm and the healing power of the mountain to guide his way forward.Skeets and MacColl forge an unlikely friendship built on no excuses as MacColl trains Skeets to compete in the Eastern States High School Track and Field Championship at NewYork City's famous Randall's Island Park. Will Skeets win the championship, and the heart of Becky Winslow? Will Bill learn to overcome his disability and return to the confident, happy man he was before the war? "No Excuses" is the story of two protagonists, as opposite as can be, struggling together to better their lives.
