A Great History Lesson

Pamela Jekel has an amazing way of telling a story. A thoroughly delightful read. She has the talent to actually place the reader at the scene. A great way to take an inexpensive trip. Her style is much like Michener's. Extensive research and a story worth telling, and she tells it better than anyone. A must read novel.

Historical fiction well done

As a librarian and avid reader of southern historical novels, I appreciated the research behind this novel, including a wonderful bibliography (unheard of in most fiction) at the end of the book for further reading. I would recommend the author's books to any reader interested in well-researched historical fiction. The interwoven vignettes are appropriately placed and lend an interesting sidebar to the story.
