Title: Awful just awful
Review: The romantic in me wanted this to be a great story....and on some level there is a niceness to it.For the 782 pages of text and who knows how much more time taken in footnotes. couldn't the author find anyone toproof read the tome?I am stopping after investing just over 200 pages of reading time- having just been told that the Civil War started onApril 13 (!!!!) 1861.Previous entries have some of the Ballou kin (or Sarah's) setting up shop in Rhode Island 50 years before the Pilgrims and 37 years before Jamestown.I love Civil War stories but way too much of this one is speculation and disinformation. Often even verb tenses are incorrect.
Is the review positive or negative?
