Big expectations for the book, and I found it to be okay. Although I appreciated a lot of the interesting historical details, I felt like many could have been left out because they were irrelevant to the story overall. I did find that I craved more story overall, perhaps it was the non-fiction format of the book. A good retelling of the behind the scenes history of a difficult to understand time in history. Larson really lifts the veil and reveals all the ego and corruption of a fascinating time in history.
