Brand of infamy
Nicole Etcheson tells an interesting story about an important part of pre-Civil War history. Her writing style and inability to narrate a cohesive story suffers throughout as she jumps from one character to the next, from one event to another event, without applying much needed context. To really enjoy this book, you might need to have vast knowledge on the time period, but even if, the book is as dry as a wikipedia entry.
