A Familiar Tale for Cameron Judd Readers

While Glory River is strikingly similar to his 1996 publication, Passage to Natchez, this is still a page turner. Mr. Judd seems to have a knack for the period (early 1800s) and brings to life an exciting time in American History, with all the color, vilence joy and tragedy of the real thing. In fact, the book is faithful to the history of the Natchez Trace and the surrounding areas. I gave four stars rather than five because the characters, their surroundings, the plot line, etc., do seem in many respects to be duplicates of those in Passage. But it is a great yarn and I recommend it to lovers of historical fiction. I think the other Underhill novels might be a good bet as well. After all, if Jack Higgins can re-work old plots, why not Mr. Judd?
