"Another great one from Irving Stone. I like his pro-American, pro-founding father, but honest, take on history. I learned so much about the American Revolution and the birth of the country. Felt like I was there!"
"This is a historical fiction, not a lusty romance novel, in case anyone is wondering if I'm starting on a new genre. I guess the lower rating is because I really enjoyed the other Irving Stone book I read about Andrew Jackson and his wife. Also this book is very long and can get quite tedious at times. I enjoy reading historical fiction very much since it helps me piece together what is happening in different parts of the world at the same time. For example, in this book, even though I knew about the French Revolution and Marie Antoinette, I never realize how soon that all had occurred after the Americans sealed their freedom from England. Nor did I realize that it was the American revolution that spurred it on. I'd give this 2 1/2 stars."
