Very good. I think this book was mentioned favorably by John McPhee.

I really wanted to like this one. I was delighted when I discovered a really nice first edition, hc w/dj, in Abe. And in fact it's not a bad book at all. But I only rate it 3½*** because it has a kind of "Saturday Evening Post" feel to it and you almost expect a Norman Rockwell illustration to appear. It just doesn't come off as entirely realistic and it's just a little too "cute."
