The Eisenhowers are moving to Atlantic Beach, Fla., near David's new naval base. Eddie and Tricia will live in New York while Ed clerks in a federal attorney's office, then settle in a two-bedroom Cambridge apartment in September as Ed begins his third year of Harvard Law School; the locale, if not all of the circumstances, conjures up Erich Segal's Love Story. Except for the few months after Lynda...
