An excellent novel, and worthy of the Pulitzer. Brooks does a fantastic job of writing in a style that fits the historical period. Even more surprising, there is plot! Hooray! I get so tired of plotless, character driven, literary novels. I highly recommend this one.
I just finished this one and I can't say that it really sent me over the moon. My review on Rose City Reader is here. I think I have just had my fill of Civil War novels.
