My rating: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78795365">4 of 5 starsI enjoyed this book. It read like a novel and if it weren't for my book club choosing it, I wouldn't have read it as I'm not inclined to read something in the true crime genre. It didn't read like a crime novel or even a true account but more literary and colorful. I especially enjoyed the eccentric characters and southern culture as I wasn't born in the South and wasn't raised with this high society etiquette and customs or expectations. I now want to learn more about Sherman's invasion and the Civil War and look forward to the next time I'm able to visit Savannah and see all of the places he mentions in the book. I highly recommend this book for those that enjoy history, suspense, character development and more...
