Sci Fi generation ship
In high school I read a novel about a generation ship, sometime around 1980-82. It was laid out in three time frames, one as the new ship gets under way. The second part is midway to destination as a conflict occurs on board. The third and final part is just before the ship arrives at the new planet, it has fallen into chaos and no one even knows that they are on a ship and a boy learns the truth and then lands the ship.
It is not Heinlein's Orphans of the Galaxy even though there are similar plot elements. The only other detail I remember (I am 52 now so, yeah), is in either part one or part two there was a female heroine.
