My rating:
1 of 5 stars
I did not like this one. There was no visualization and the conversations were drab. As I have heard other people say, it is true there were many historical inaccuracies. Usually I can get past that in a book, yet in this one there was nothing to take up the slack. Some one else might love this book, but it was no my cup of tea.

Alas, even though this was not the best book for me. There are many other new releases from WaterBrook Multnomah's Value Fiction that are definitely worthwhile like my recent post of Robin Jones Gunn's Secrets and others.
