Excellent telling of a really good story. A pleasure to listen to.

Loved it. Had to keep remembering that it wasn’t part of the Little Women series/films. In fact, it was better - at least for me. Very creative and compelling story.

LOVED IT - SO CREATIVE AND TOUCHING, LOVED NARRATOR'S VOICE!

I am so glad for listening to this book. What I learned in history class about the civil war (in a yankee class) was that the north was good and driven by morality whereas the south bad and driven by financial concerns , stupidity and cruelty. Obviously this is a skewed picture driven by a prejudice special to the north , a kind of haughty scrupulousness. But I digress. Forget whether or not you like or don't like or haven't read little women as the determining factor for whether u will like this book. Because it emerges from scholarship, poetics, spiritual inspiration and insight into the state of literature, philosophy and politics of the time. This is rich and complex slice of one man' s experience of war. If you want insight into shattering impact war can have on a person read this and in this respect the book is also modern.
