Anyone see this book?
Forgive me if it's been posted about before and I missed it, but has anyone seen this book?

RE: Anyone see this book?
I've come across it looking for other books. Since it is a work of fiction, I did not give it much attention. After reading the comments in the article your referenced, it's not something I would purchase or check out of the library.
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in? |

RE: Anyone see this book?
I've seen references to it - fiction with a lot of historical errors and fictitious characters interwoven. Another attempt to cash in on the sesquicentennial of the assassination using 19th Century Victorian characters with 21st Century attributes.....

RE: Anyone see this book?
I'm like Gene-in that I don't pay much attention to fiction. I also don't care to read the novels with different endings-like the ones Newt has written. Not anything wrong with such things-just a matter of taste. This author is well-educated-has 3 Masters Degrees.
