Impossible to put down.

This wonderful novel is impossible to put down.  Each chapter is a lesson in lesser-known parts of American history at the turn of the last century, including the story of orphans trying to make their way in this country.  You care for these characters and root for them to succeed.

Once the story line really unfolds, this book is  hard to put down. It is not a good idea to read when you have to work the next day because you may not get much sleep. It is that good.

The, book while fictional, is written in such a way as being believable in its possibilities. It is a story that is very hard to put down. It captures the reader from the 1st sentence and doesn't let go till the last. I only gave it 4 stars because a few minor things were left hanging. The book is worth the money.
