Book Review of Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All

Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All
k00kaburra avatar reviewed on + 62 more book reviews


This is long, and a bit difficult to read. The language isn't hard - I'm not sure what the hold-up is, exactly. I enjoy the stories, and I loved the way Lady Marsden was described. "A woman who made paper look dirty because her skin was so white" - I think that's really cool. But a lot of the book seems like a history lesson, and I guess I just don't have the endurance for it right now.

It's definitely a book I may pick up again in the future.
