Title: A good book...from the best historical fiction author
Review: I love John Jakes' books. I have always found them to be incredibly well researched and deep. Charleston does not disappoint. The characters are interesting and well-rounded. I particularly liked Alex, Edward and Edgar. Mr. Jakes incorporates some little known aspects of the American Revolution, and Civil War into this book. I also liked how he occasionally mentions the Mains from "North & South" in this book.There were times when the battle details went on too long for me, but over all it is a wonderful book--full of insanity, passion, and interesting parallels from the beginning to the end.Enjoy!
