I chose this book for a book club I run because we'd just finished some very serious, complicated non fiction. It was a great balance to them! The writing is top notch and Mosher is hilarious. You can see from the cover that the main character, Kinneson True, is a Don Quixote type and his nephew Ticonderoga, the narrator, is the Sancho Panza sidekick.I don't think there will be much to discuss actually, only appreciate, but this led me to research the Lewis and Clark expedition to share, and I'm very taken with hundreds of fascinating facts!
