Jill B. reviewed on 8/30/2011

Picked this book up in a used book store, not knowing the author's name or much about this particular period in history. I find that I am quickly bored when a story lags or an author beats me over the head with useless details. What I found with George's writing is that she is fast paced -- she seems to expect her readers to be bright enough to keep up. I was quite pleasantly surprised and found myself looking up more information about the Johnstown Flood after I finished the story.
