Helpful Score: 1

I thought I would never get through this book. Although the story is interesting and the characters are as well, the sory is just too wordy. The descriptions and conversations go on and on. We hear the same stories through both his journal and his wifes journal with the story told also through several friends views. General Hood describes himself as a widow and orphan maker and that he is. Almost everyone he ever meets ends up dying of yellow fever or gets killed. I would not recommend the book.
