This is a brilliantly crafted novel. At the end it has an interview with the author and she talks about how she based the character on Louise May Alcott's father and used some of his actual correspondence in the novel! The character she created is absolutely lovable..he's an amazing man with idealism and a strong commitment to his values and morals. The insight the author offers on the thoughts and feelings of abolitionists, slaves & the men & women fighting during the Civil War is phenomenal. I really enjoyed this novel!
