I read this when I was a kid and decide to read it again for curiosity's sake. It was all right. It's a coming of age story set during the Civil War. The Creightons have their fair share of enemies even though they are good people. I'm mixed about the parts of the book where they tell about history and then jump back into the story. It's probably good for children but I wanted to get back to the plot. The most inspirational thing about this book to me is that the author was 57 when it got published. As an inspiring writer, this made me happy. It's never too late to be discovered. She would go on to write other successful books too.
