Customer Reviews

history never read so well

This was a very exciting time on the planet, a time of discovery. Gwaltney takes on an exciting journey through the eyes of a disadvantaged, rebellious and talented minority who rises from obscurity to grab his rightful share of riches. A story well told by a masterful writer.

great read

This book is a delight. It would make a great movie. I started it yesterday and couldn't put it down until I finished it -- at three o'clock this morning.
