Review # 1 was written on 2018-01-09 00:00:00 Oleg Feygin The Stuart Family: 8 children in the hills of Arkansas. The oldest three, Lylah, Amos, and Owens, decide to go their own way. What a great era. The beginning of the 1900's brought a lot of firsts. Planes and cars, just to name a few. Names such as Teddy Roosevelt and Randolph Hearst, fill the pages. Being a writer myself I found Hearst and his paper very interesting. (Not so much the man.) I read every book of the House of Winslow several years ago and found A Bright Tomorrow much the same type of writing. The pace did go fast at times, then slowed to record an important event like the Rough Riders and Cuba. I loved this book and the feeling it gave me about the early 1900's. It drew me into the exciting events of that era.

Amos,Llyah and Owen are eldest of 8 children who go on a long adventure in different ways to escape their poverty life in Arkansas with their family and go and live their dreams with no rules. Lylah runs away from her school and joins acting business in New York while her family was worried when they knew about it. To search Llyah, Amos,the eldest of 8 children, goes to new York, later he decides to stay there when he found her to earn money and to live his dream. Who might be interested in this book? Why? This book is more like a history book so the ones who are more interested in history this book is for them. This book talks about Spanish-american war, what happened with soldiers and how they felt and presidency of Teddy Roosevelt and finding of what they want. Overall Satisfaction I give this book 4 stars because this book was really easy, this book changes perspectives but we know when and from what perspective its going talking about by reading the title of the chapter. This book has everything in it, all types of emotions in it.
