Negative Positive
Title: A terrible book about the Gold Rush.
Review: "Against All Odds: The Lucy Scott Mitchum Story" is about an extremely interesting topic - the Gold Rush and how families packed up what they could fit into a covered wagon and begin a new life in states which offered wealth and prosperity - but this story was very dull and mundane. At points, the story dragged on and on and then a split second later, it jumped ahead ten days with a brief paragraph about what happened. With barely any dialogue, diary entries, or letters, this novel only described feelings and events. The ending came too fast and was too short, compared to the rest of the book and seemed very unrealistic to me. I was very disappointed - I do not recommend.
