255/1001 ~ "Memory, I realise, can be an unreliable thing; often it is heavily coloured by the circumstances in which one remembers"
The author's father was named Michael Shaara and wrote "The Killer Angels" which was a Pulitzer Prize winning novel that was made into the movie "Gettysburg". The son, Jeff Shaara, copied his father's unique writing style but did not do it justice. Admittedly, "The Killer Angels" is a historical fiction novel that covers 3 days while the son had to cover several years of the Civil War. This was not easy for that writing style. Still the book is an acceptable prequal to the "Killer Angels" if you enjoyed the characters and I have purchased but not yet read his sequal to "Killer Angels" and his novels on the Mexican-American War and the Revolutionary War.
beautiful!
