♥♥♥♥♥ |
Wonderfully researched
|
I love Jimmy Carter and want to salute him for writing fiction. I can't think of any other former US president who has done such a thing.
What kills this book is not the research which is excellent but the people in the book which seem to be more like actors in a play then fictional characters. They speak as if they already know the outcome of the situation they find themselves in.
The transitions from one scene to another are also painful to read but I could even ignore this if the book didn't have the tendency to good into history text book mode spoon feeding the reader perfectly self evident information which the characters never utilize.
Overall-For all of its faults the book does make plain that which no one else wants to remember the Revolutionary War was never as simple as everyone would like to believe.
