Title: "Few sequels measure up to the original"
Review: I first read Mrs. Mike almost forty years ago and enjoyed it very much. I reread it several times and I'm sure the story of Katherine Mary Flannigan influenced me to pursue a Ph.D. in history with an emphasis on women in the West. I was delighted to see this sequel appear, but Mrs. Mike barely shows up in the new work. The rich descriptions aren't there either, and the overuse of dialog to carry the story was annoying to me. Also this work is burdened with presentism, applying language and values of today rather than those in place fifty years ago. Oh Be Joyful's Daughter's story is a fascinating one on its own, and her struggle against racism is important to remember. But I wanted more of the charm of the original, and more about Mrs. Mike.
