And now, my review:
My impression of this book was that it was a page-turner from the beginning. I thought the storyline was really exciting to read. There is great anticipation that builds, crumbles, builds, crumbles, and builds again. I loved how the author painted the feel of America at that time. This was very frustrating and just the way it was back in the day... I'm so thankful there is no partiality with God. Check this one out for an excellent read!
