Review title: If you like James Michener-style writing, you'll like this book
Product review: The author of Dunbar's Cove reminds me very much of writers like James Michener, Herman Wouk, and Leon Uris. All were able to create believable, everyday characters and set them in an historical context, with the main focus being how the lives of individuals were affected by their time in history. Dunbar's Cove is about the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority), the gov't takeover of land that belonged to small landholders, and its affect on those individuals. Although a work of fiction, these are events that did take place, and real lives were affected forever. The ultimate questions this book asks is which takes priority, individual rights or the common good? And does the ends justify the means? The issue of eminent domain is just as relevant now as it was in the days of the Roosevelt Administration. Good read.
