Allen Drury's University series
Allen Drury's ''University'' series is a trio of novels written by political novelist Allen Drury between 1990 and 1998, which follow a group of university fraternity brothers for a span of over 60 years from 1938 to 2001.〔(【引用サイトリンク】Publishers Weekly ">accessdate=January 17, 2015 )〕 Drury graduated from Stanford University in 1939, and his experiences there provided the basis for the series.〔 The novels are set in a different fictional timeline from Drury's 1959 novel ''Advise and Consent'', which earned him a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pulitzer Prize Winners: Fiction (1948-present) )〕
''Toward What Bright Glory?'' (1990) introduces Richard "Willie" Wilson and his diverse Alpha Zeta fraternity brothers, who are beginning their senior year at "the University" as war in Europe looms on the horizon. ''Into What Far Harbor?'' (1993) finds the remaining Alpha Zetas returning from World War II and facing a new set of challenges in a changed world. Finally in ''Public Men'' (1998), octogenarian Willie plans a 2001 reunion for his surviving pals as he looks back on his run for the Presidency decades earlier.〔〔〔
