I noticed that the author is from New York and I wonder if he'd ever ventured out to Little Big Horn or Montana. Or maybe I'm not understanding what he describing, but in chapter three he writes:
"The three scouts left again in the deep blue just before dawn. Rain lay heavily on the leaves of the cottonwoods and wet on their faces. A flock of white birds led them over wide open pale gold grasslands. Bradley had dreamed of his father, sleeping fitfully. The weather broke for a few hours and though it was still cloudy, a teasing purple-edged sun peeked over the great and distant mountains. They rode toward it. They circled the river valley, skirted the edge and headed west onto the high plains." At that area of Montana, the mountains are west, not east as he describes so the sun would be rising east over the plains, not west over the mountains. Just kinda ruined it for me since the author missed that detail.
But I thought that his descriptions were really vivid and well done though, so there's that. Battlefield descriptions were almost uncomfortable to read!
Wish I could give it a 2.5 but I just couldn't give it a three, so two it is.… (mais)
