This is a re-read of a book I thoroughly enjoyed when it originally was published. The author had plenty of room to develop each of the main (family member) characters, but Travis and Douglas are significantly less well-rounded than the other brothers. The book is a whopping 500 pages, which I thought was a bit long. To be fair, the story takes place in New York City, Montana and England.
When four hellions of New York City find a baby girl thrown away in the trash in an alley, they decide that they must take care of Mary Rose. They decide to take her west and raise her to be a lady. During the course of the story, the reader learns how Mary Rose sealed the unity between the four 'brothers' to create a family. Becoming Mary Rose's family caused each brother to become a better person than he would have become otherwise. An interesting and unique story. The pages fly by.
