What did you like about this book?
"The writing is lean and literate in style, painting a fascinating word portrait that is given a humanist depth in the way the author portrays these historic, transforming events set against the environment and complications that inform the shaping of these characters' lives and destinies. The cast of everyday people portrayed here is, individually and collectively, certainly strong enough to carry the narrative, successfully engaging the reader's interest in wanting to know what will happen next. The author's choice of incident is well honed in the way individual scenes reveal character through action and dialogue; AN ENTERTAINING AND INFORMATIVE READ."Timber Sale: A B.C.
