Summary: You'd learn more from a Harlequin Romance
Comment: I worked at the JFD Lanier SHS with David Cart, the "co-author" of this book, and served as Curator of the site immediately after his resignation in 1998. I also own this book, and I did read it. Little of it is grounded in fact. Most of the situations that take place in the book are speculative at best, due to Mr. Cart's selective research and creative mind. If you are interested in Lanier and his contributions to Indiana history, you won't learn anything substantive from this (lacking a better word) novel. My suggestion is Indiana 1816-1850 by Donald Carmony, a trained historian who performed significant research on the pioneer history of Indiana. That, or go to the JFD Lanier Mansion in Madison, Indiana.
